Common questions relating to Appleton Lease Extensions

  • Hi. I need someone to review my lease extension before it's signed just to ensure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a reissue with a few small amendments.
  • My neighbours and I are in a building comprising five flats in Appleton and have been offered to buy the freehold for £6000 per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • I purchased a three bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Appleton. I am looking for a lease extension on the property. It is nearon 80 years. I would just like to know what your charges are and how long the process takes.
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Appleton. The lease has just 65 years residual lease term and ground rent is £25. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Initial Notice and then transfer over the right to me as the purchaser on the day of completion so that I don't have to wait for the two year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this may be possible but will it be very time costly to the flat owner? To add to the complexity the freeholder is absent, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • I am planning to extend the lease on my garden flat in Appleton I am looking for a local company to calculate the premium. I have a premium value that the freeholder has given me. I would like to go forward as soon as possible, but for the right premium and fee.
  • Hello I own the freehold reversion in a one bedroom flat in Appleton. The leaseholder has a sixety two year lease and would like to purchase another 125 years. She is offering me £21,000 but I am not sure if this is too low an offer
  • I'm looking at buying an apartment in Appleton valued at £210,000 the flat has just under 71 years remaining on the lease. My offer was subject to the lease being extended... .. that was back in August, hoping I'd have completed before Christmas. They have just come back saying they'll reduce the price by£7k if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm not sure whether that's a good idea
  • We are in the throws of buying a property (a studio flat inAppleton with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at apartments that had at least eighty five years outstanding. We identified a flat we fell in love with and the selling agent promised us that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our solicitors advised us the lease only has 78 years and thus requires a lease extension. Do we run away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Appleton and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £9,000, but has increased this by £2,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
