How does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial premises in Blaenau Gwent and how can your lawyers assist?

The 1954 Act affords protection to business tenants, giving them the right to apply to court for a renewal tenancy and remain in occupation when the lease reaches an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complicated.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we instruct their preferred conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Blaenau Gwent

It is improbable the sellers are driving this. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to use your own,trusted Blaenau Gwent conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a kickback or meet his conveyancing targets pre-set by head office.

Generally there is no requirement to attend the office of your lawyer, they can send any relevant papers to you, which you can sign and return. Many home movers choose to instruct a locally based solicitor, but it's by no means essential for conveyancing in Blaenau Gwent.
