Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Rhosesmor. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Please supply a car parking plan.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent advised that the owners will only proceed if we appoint their preferred solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Rhosesmor

It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. If they want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Rhosesmor conveyancing firm - as opposed tothe ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or hit his conveyancing figures set by HQ.

I want to rent out my leasehold flat in Rhosesmor. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?

Some leases for properties in Rhosesmor do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.
