I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one near me in Llandudno Junction I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Llandudno Junction for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
I was pointed in your direction by a few estate agents in Llandudno Junction to select a solicitor using your seach tool. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to promote your lawyers over alternative conveyancing organisations?
We don’t make any commission for pointing buyers and sellers our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

My fiance and I may need to sub-let our Llandudno Junction garden flat temporarily due to a career opportunity. We used a Llandudno Junction conveyancing practice in 2001 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
Notwithstanding that your previous Llandudno Junction conveyancing solicitor is no longer available you can check your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the lease is non-specific, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you must seek permission from your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. The net result is you not allowed to sublet without prior permission. Such consent must not not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease prohibits you from subletting the property you will need to ask your landlord if they are willing to waive this restriction.
