Aldersbrook Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • I agreed with the landlord to a lease extension on our flat based in Aldersbrook, 20k for another 90yrs. Can you please guide us with this situation ?
  • I have an interest in the freehold of buildings comprising of six flats each. 2 of the leaseholders want a lease extension and I'm wondering about the the process
  • I am considering investing in a second home but it has a lease that expires in 14 years. Its in Aldersbrook - I wanted to see if with your services it is possible for this to be extended?
  • I own a leasehold flat in Aldersbrook. I have built a big extension and have not informed my leaseholder. What should I do?
  • My (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
  • My dad has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Aldersbrook. House divided into three apartments. He has a lease, which has around 59 yrs outstanding. How much would it cost for a lease extension and how many years would he need to extend by?
  • Although I do not need a lease extension but I do require a vesting order on a property I want to purchase in Aldersbrook. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, Nine hundred and ninety nine year lease from 1895. Its the rear garden.
  • Me and my husband have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our one bedroom apartment in Aldersbrook. We have a fivety six year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has provided us with a premium amount that she is happy with to accept for the extension of the lease, which we are happy with as well and wish to proceed. All we need now is a to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on the lease extension.
  • I'm intent on acquiring an apartment in Aldersbrook at a price of £256,000 the flat has something like 78 years left on the lease. I put in an offer conditional upon the lease being extended... .. that was back in September, hoping I'd be in before now. The owner has just informed the agent that they are prepared to reduce the price by£8k if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm not sure whether that's a good idea
  • My and my partner know that others in the same block had already had a lease extension, and the freeholder was reasonable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of not having formal valuation and calculate the initial offer on on the premiums paid by others . This would save on double valuation charges. Is this advisable?
