It has been 4 months following my purchase conveyancing in Dolwyddelan completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Dolwyddelan I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Dolwyddelan suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

There are certain specified grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are involved. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and help with commercial conveyancing in Dolwyddelan

Am I better off to go with a Dolwyddelan conveyancing lawyer based in the area that I am hoping to buy? An old friend can conduct the legal formalities but his firm is located 200kilometers away.

They will also have local knowledge which is a bonus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you.
