I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Llantwit Fardre. I have a mortgage offer with Clydesdale. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds.

Our sealed bid on a house in Llantwit Fardre has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have put an offer on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have selected a local conveyancing solicitor in Llantwit Fardre. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Nationwide going?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then survey, Llantwit Fardre conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you must check that your lawyer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.

I work for a long established estate agent office in Llantwit Fardre 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 inconsistent advice from local Llantwit Fardre conveyancing firms. Can you confirm whether the owner of a flat can start the lease extension process for the buyer?
As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or at the same time as completion of the sale.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder 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 purchaser.
