  • Me and my fiance are acquiring a two bedroom ground floor purpose built maisonette in Ryhope which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor commenced dealing with a lease extension. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our conveyancers to do OS1 search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our conveyancing practitioners it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we have to hold on pending registration of the new lease?
  • Me and my OH are in the throws of buying a property (a one bedroom apartment inRyhope with share of freehold). Throughout our search, we were always looking at properties that had a minimum eighty five years unexpired. We identified a apartment we liked and the estate agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our solicitors advised us the lease only has 65 years and thus needs a lease extension. Do we run away, or should we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
