Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Kilgetty is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

I work for a busy estate agent office in Kilgetty where we see a few flat sales put at risk due to short leases. I have received inconsistent advice from local Kilgetty conveyancing solicitors. Please can you clarify whether the seller of a flat can commence the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
As long as the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the proposed purchaser need not have to wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible 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.

Please note that where the lease has less than 80 years it will affect the salability of the flat. Check with your mortgage company that they are willing to lend given the lease term. Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will probably require a lease extension at some point and it is worth finding out how much this will be. Remember, in most cases you would be required to have been the owner of the premises for two years in order to be entitled to carry out a lease extension. Best to be warned if fixing the lift or some other major work is due shortly to be shared amongst the leasehold owners and may well materially impact the level of the service charges or require a specific invoice. The answer will be important as a) areas could cause problems for the building as the common areas may start to deteriorate where services are not paid for b) if the tenants have a dispute with the managing agents you will want to have complete disclosure
