I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Bellingham. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the remaining lease term.

If the lease is registered - and almost all are in Bellingham - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Notwithstanding our best efforts, we have been unsuccessful in trying to reach an agreement for a lease extension in Bellingham. Can this matter be resolved via the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
