The primary upside of using a local Maesteg conveyancing firm is that you can drop in to execute documents, present your identification documents and pester them where appropriate. Having local Maesteg know how is a plus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If other friends have instructed your friend and they were content that should trump using an unknown Maesteg conveyancing solicitor just because they are Maesteg based.
We own a leasehold flat in Maesteg. Conveyancing was finalised in five years ago. I have been told that I should not allow the the remaining lease term to fall too short. Why is that a problem?
Maesteg leasehold properties are for a fixed period - normally ninety nine years when they started. However a significant appartments in Maesteg were constructed or converted in the 70’s80’s and so such leases now have fewer than eighty years unexpired. This may seem like plenty of time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies tend to require leases to have a minimum of seventy five years left to adequate security. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are getting close to seventy five years. To optimize your property value you should be thinking about whether to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. Furthermore strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease hits eighty years as when the lease falls below 80 years the amount you have to pay to extend starts to escalate.
