March conveyancing on leasehold apartments usually necessitates the purchaser’s conveyancer sending questions for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to respond to such questions the majority will be willing to assist.

The average costs for the information that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some transactions it is above £800.
