Use this topic hub when the leasehold pack looks incomplete, inconsistent, or hard to trust and the next step depends on chasing the right missing material.

Review arrears, complaints, tribunal references, management problems, repairs, and dispute wording that can affect confidence before exchange.
Who this is for
Buyers who want to use a LeaseLens review constructively with their solicitor or conveyancer.
Why it matters
LEASE recommends using professional legal advice for buying and selling leasehold property. A good question list helps the conveyancer focus on the points that affect exchange, lender requirements and buyer understanding.
What to check first
- Separate legal interpretation questions from factual missing-document questions.
- Ask the conveyancer which issues they require to be resolved before exchange.
- Ask the conveyancer to confirm lease clauses behind charges, restrictions and obligations.
- Ask whether lender requirements are affected.
- Ask for plain-English explanation of the practical risk.
Red flags in the pack
- Question list asks the managing agent to interpret law rather than provide documents.
- Buyer proceeds before the conveyancer has reviewed lease clauses.
- Risk is treated as resolved because an AI summary says so.
- Lender or mortgage-broker concerns are not fed back into legal review.
- No written record of the answer before exchange.
Evidence to gather
- LeaseLens findings and source references.
- Full pack and missing-document list.
- Mortgage offer/lender conditions where relevant.
- Conveyancer replies in writing.
Questions to send
- Which findings affect exchange, lender requirements or report-on-title wording?
- Which lease clauses support the ground rent, service charge and admin-fee position?
- Which missing documents do you require before exchange?
- Do any findings require specialist advice, lender input or seller undertakings?
How LeaseLens uses this
LeaseLens generates buyer-ready questions, but the conveyancer remains responsible for legal advice and transaction decisions.
