Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to pop into the offices of the solicitor to sign the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Llanymynech so that I can pop in to their offices if necessary.
As opposed to twenty years ago, the vast majority mortgage companies no longer oblige their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the borrowers signature. It will still be necessary for you to supply identification documents and there are still manifest benefits to using a local ayer, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Llanymynech.
Various internet forums that I have come across warn that are the primary cause of delay in Llanymynech conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?

Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Llanymynech.
My wife and I have a renovated Georgian house in Llanymynech. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Nationwide Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the matching property. Is it worth asking Nationwide Building Society to clarify?
You need to review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Llanymynech and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

I work for a reputable estate agent office in Llanymynech where we have witnessed a number of leasehold sales jeopardised as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received inconsistent advice from local Llanymynech conveyancing solicitors. Could you shed some light as to whether the owner of a flat can start the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
Provided that 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 buyer can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord 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 own a 1 bedroom flat in Llanymynech, conveyancing formalities finalised September 2010. How much will my lease extension cost? Corresponding properties in Llanymynech with over 90 years remaining are worth £206,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 invoiced every year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2090
With only 66 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £12,400 and £14,200 plus legals.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
