  • Me and my husband are purchasing a ground floor flat in Westerham which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor is in the process of extending the lease. The seller’s lawyer 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 house buying process is for our solicitors to do a pre-completion search on the property title. 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 property title number is not known. Is it right that we must wait until the new lease is registered?

Do I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
