  • My partner and I are are hoping to complete on a one bedroom apartment in Stockwell which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the owner commenced dealing with a lease extension. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our conveyancers to do a pre-completion 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 wait pending registration of the new lease?
  • Me and my sister are in the throws of buying a flat (a studio flat located inStockwell with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at properties that had a minimum 84 years left on the lease. We identified a place we fell in love with and the selling agent promised us that the lease term was not an issue. Today our property lawyers told us the lease only has sixety two years and therefore needs a lease extension. Should we run away, or do 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?
