We're new to the buying process - agreed a price, yet the estate agent informed us that the vendor will only go ahead if we use the agent's chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Anston
It is highly unlikely the sellers are driving this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to use your preferred Anston conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by HQ.
I am a negotiator for a long established estate agent office in Anston where we have witnessed a number of leasehold sales put at risk as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received contradictory information from local Anston conveyancing firms. Please can you clarify whether the seller of a flat can start the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
As long as 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 need not have to wait 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 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.

It would be sensible to find out as much as possible regarding the company managing the block as they will either make life much easier or uncomfortable. As the proprietor of a leasehold property you will be in the clutches of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to day to day matters such as the tidiness of the common parts.

Finally, find out the dates that the service charges are due to the relevant party and specifically how they are spending the funds.
