I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and have to be out of my rented apartment in Mevagissey by 13/4/2026. Conveyancing for my house purchase is underway. Can I complete in 4 weeks as don't want to have to find short term accommodation?

Back In 2009, I bought a leasehold flat in Mevagissey. Conveyancing and Virgin Money mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1993. The conveyancing practitioner in Mevagissey who previously acted has long since retired. Do I pay?
First make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that this person is in fact the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to instruct a Mevagissey conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for £3. You should note that in any event, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
