It is unclear whether my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Tywyn building society branch on various occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Tywyn conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend in accordance with their published requirements. Who do I believe?
The lawyer has to follow the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Tywyn I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Tywyn in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
My husband and I are new on the property ladder - agreed a price, but the property agent informed us that the vendor will only move forward if we instruct the agent's chosen conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Tywyn
We suspect that the seller is not behind this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is counter productive. Try to communicate with the vendors directly and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Tywyn conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a referral fee or meet his conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.
I have just started marketing my 2 bed flat in Tywyn. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have just received a yearly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?
It best that you clear the invoice as usual given that all ground rent and service invoices should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

How many of the leaseholders are in arrears for their maintenance charge payments? You will want to discover as much as you can about the company managing the building as they can either make your living at the property much simpler or problematic. As the owner of a leasehold property you will be in the clutches of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to day to day matters such as the upkeep of the communal areas. Ask prospective neighbours what they think of them. On a final note, investigate as to the dates that the service fees are due to the relevant party and specifically what it includes. Best to be warned if redecorating or some other major work is anticipated that will be shared amongst the leaseholders and may well dramatically impact the level of the maintenance charges or necessitate a one off payment.
