I can not fathom if my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called my Wenvoe building society branch on numerous occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Wenvoe conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they will not lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Wenvoe I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Wenvoe in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan that many years may be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account.

An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

Is the landlord entitled to charge an administration fee for a leasehold conveyance in Wenvoe?

    Addressing conveyancing due diligence questions Where consent is required before sale in Wenvoe Supplying insurance information Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your conveyancer will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Wenvoe leasehold property is £350. For Wenvoe conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are required to supply answers.

I inherited a split level flat in Wenvoe, conveyancing was carried out November 2008. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease?
