- Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Trearddur Bay can be avoided if you instruct lawyers the minute you market your property and ask them to collate the leasehold information which will be required by the purchasers’ solicitors. If you have had any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is very important that these are settled prior to the flat being marketed. The buyers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a property where there is a current dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and discharge any arrears of service charge or settle the dispute prior to the buyers completing the purchase.

Trearddur Bay leases often stipulate that internal structural alterations or laying down wooden flooring calls for a licence from the Landlord approving such changes.
