I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and must be out of my let out property in Llantarnam by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is progressing. Can I complete in 5 weeks as don't want to have to find short term accommodation?
It is unwise to give notice on a rental until your lawyer suggests that you should. Assuming that you have not previously done so, notify to your solicitor and ask them to they cajole the other solicitors, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will look to achieve

I am a negotiator for a busy estate agency in Llantarnam where we see a few flat sales derailed as a result of short leases. I have received conflicting advice from local Llantarnam conveyancing solicitors. Please can 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?
As long as 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 proposed purchaser 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 needs to be completed prior to, 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 buyer.
I invested in buying a studio flat in Llantarnam, conveyancing formalities finalised 7 years ago. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Comparable properties in Llantarnam with a long lease are worth £265,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 yearly. The lease ends on 21st October 2102
With just 76 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.
How does one remove a deceased person's name from the title register for a house in Llantarnam?
If a Llantarnam property is co-owned and one of the proprietors dies, their name will not automatically be removed from the Land Registry title. You are not required to amend the title as when it comes to a sale you would simply be asked to supply proof why the joint proprietor is not included in the transfer, usually this takes the form of a grant of probate.
With a view to making things more straight forward for the sale of the property you may apply to have the deceased person removed from the title by applying to HM Land Registry with evidence of the death. There is no fee from the Registry for this service.
