Me and my brother purchased a semi-detached Edwardian property in Abercynon. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Bank of Scotland. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

I am employed by a long established estate agent office in Abercynon where we have witnessed a few flat sales derailed due to short leases. I have received inconsistent advice from local Abercynon conveyancing solicitors. Could you clarify whether the vendor of a flat can initiate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the proposed purchaser can avoid having to wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or simultaneously with 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.

New build sellers have recommended to me a conveyancer and I've sought an estimate from them. It's nearly £300 less expensive than my preferred Abercynon conveyancing practitioner. What's the catch?
Developers frequently have panels of conveyancers who expedite matters and who know the builder's paperwork and conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to use their approved conveyancer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they demand an exchange within a tight deadline. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested conveyancing practitioner is that they may be unwilling to fight for your interests at the risk of alienating the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should remain with your local Abercynon solicitor.
