When appointing a property lawyer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Llandeilo conveyancing practice) it is most important that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work.

I am the registered owner of a 1 bedroom flat in Llandeilo, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2006. How much will my lease extension cost? Corresponding properties in Llandeilo with an extended lease are worth £165,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2103
With just 78 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £7,600 and £8,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to advice on the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
