I was pointed in your direction by a number of selling agents in Bagillt to find a conveyancer on your site. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to recommend your lawyers over and above a competitor’s?
We don’t offer any referral fee for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
I am employed by a busy estate agent office in Bagillt where we have witnessed a number of leasehold sales derailed as a result of short leases. I have received contradictory information from local Bagillt conveyancing firms. Could you shed some light as to whether the owner of a flat can start the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
Provided that the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
An alternative approach is to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

You should want to find out as much as possible about the company managing the block as they can either make your life much simpler or problematic. Being a leasehold owner you are often at the mercy of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to every day matters such as the tidiness of the common parts. Don't be shy to ask other people if they are happy with them. On a final note, investigate as to the dates that the service fees are due to the managing agents and precisely how they are spending that money. The prefered form of lease structure is a share of the freehold. In this situation the lessees have control and even though a managing agent is often retained where it is larger than a house conversion, the managing agent is directed by the tenants. It would be a good idea to discover if the the lease includes any onerous restrictions in the lease. For example it is reasonably common in Bagillt leases that pets are not permitted in certain buildings in Bagillt. If you love the flatin Bagillt yet your cat can’t move with you then you have a very difficult decision.
