Most leasehold conveyancing experts should be able to deal with a lease extension. if you are securing a mortgage then your lender may insist that the lease be extended before competition. Virgin have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 3/4/2025 the requirements read as follows :

I have recentlydiscovered that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Oxton for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 12 months ago. How can I check that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest way to check if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Oxton conveyancing specialists.

I am purchasing my first flat in Oxton with a loan from Bank of Scotland. The sellers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my lawyer about the side-deal as it may affect my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Oxton in advance of retaining lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor advised that some banks may not issue a mortgage on this type of premises.
