- A significant proportion of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Feltham can be reduced if you get in touch lawyers as soon as your agents start advertising the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold information which will be required by the buyers’ conveyancers. If you have carried out any alterations to the residence would they have required Landlord’s consent? Have you, for example laid down wooden flooring? Most leases in Feltham state that internal structural alterations or addition of wooden flooring calls for a licence from the Landlord approving such alterations. If you fail to have the approvals to hand you should not contact the landlord without contacting your conveyancer in the first instance. The majority of freeholders or managing agents in Feltham charge for providing management packs for a leasehold premises. You or your lawyers should discover the actual amount of the charges.

It is therefore important at an early stage that you consider whether the lease term for your property needs extending. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your premises on the market for sale.
