The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees.

If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Treharris I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Treharris suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.

We're FTB’s - agreed a price, but the agent told us that the owners will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's recommended lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Treharris
We suspect that the owner is not behind this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to use your own,trusted Treharris conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthe ones that will earn their estate agent a commission or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by head office.
