By taking action to work with all parties, like agents, managing agents and lenders, your conveyancing solicitor will help make sure your home move completes without a hitch.
Does the conveyancing for selling leasehold take longer?
Yes, that's correct, it can take much more time to carry out the legal work to sell a leasehold property, compared to the sale of a freehold property.
The buyer's solicitor will want to see these documents, such as three years' filed accounts for the property management. The time required by to source this information is the common cause of such delays.
It can take a long time to gather these details if it is difficult to contact the landlord or managing agent, so the solicitor should get this underway at the earliest opportunity.

How much should I budget for conveyancing in Mold?
On a conveyancing quote, the various costs or charges can be split into two types:
Solicitors' fees
Your solicitor's quote will detail the fees for the legal work, including VAT, that you'll pay when your transaction completes. These fees are what your lawyer charges you for the work they complete for you.
Disbursements
Your conveyancing quote should also itemise required third-party costs, or disbursements, including Stamp Duty and property searches.
Is it a fixed fee quote?
Some solicitors' quotes include extra costs in the small print, resulting in a final bill that is higher than the original quote. Make sure you question any charges not set out in your initial quote, when comparing quotes.
