It is therefore essential at an as soon as possible that you consider whether the lease for your property needs extending. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your premises on the market for sale. If you have had conflict with your landlord or managing agents it is very important that these are settled prior to the flat being put on the market.

It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors.
