We suspect that the seller is unaware of this request. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to appoint your own,trusted Claverdon conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothe ones that will earn the estate agent a kickback or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.

From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
