I work for a busy estate agent office in Barton under Needwood where we have experienced a number of leasehold sales jeopardised due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have been given conflicting advice from local Barton under Needwood conveyancing firms. Could you clarify whether the seller of a flat can initiate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer can avoid having to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.

An alternative approach is to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

Builders have suggested I use a conveyancing practitioner and I've obtained a quote from them. It's nearly £400 cheaper than my preferred Barton under Needwood property lawyer. Should I use them?

Housebuilders normally have panels of conveyancing practitioners who expedite matters and who know the seller’s paperwork and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to choose a preferred conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer won't put forward a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they demand an exchange within a tight time frame. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the recommended conveyancer is that they may be unwilling to 'push' your interests for fear of alienating the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should keep with your local Barton under Needwood conveyancer.
