My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, but the selling agent informed us that the seller will only go ahead if we instruct their chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Snaresbrook

We suspect that the seller is not behind this requirement. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to use your own,trusted Snaresbrook conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.

I am employed by a busy estate agent office in Snaresbrook where we see a few leasehold sales derailed as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have been given contradictory information from local Snaresbrook conveyancing firms. Could you confirm whether the seller of a flat can start the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

Provided that the seller has owned the lease 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 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.

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 purchaser.

I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord for a lease extension without any joy. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal decide on such issues? Can you recommend a Snaresbrook conveyancing firm to help?

Absolutely. We can put you in touch with a Snaresbrook conveyancing firm who can help.
