  • I'm deliberating over buying a maisonette (leasehold) but the freeholder has been absent for around 15yrs. My question is would it be cheaper to try to buy the freehold or to extend lease and apply for right to manage?
  • I am about to view a two bedroom apartment, although not exactly my perfect property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present circumstances. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 79 years remaining on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm guessing that the vendor will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My main concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • I am a freeholder of a block of flats in Ashby de la Zouch, and the lessees are in the process of being issued lease extensions. I should hopefully get funds next week. Are there any tax implications, the property is co-owned with my wife ?

  • I am looking to buy a one bed flat in Ashby de la Zouch for asking price of 145k, which has 74 years lease left on it. I appreciate that ideally, the seller would start the process by serving a section 42 notice to start the lease extension process but the seller is refusing to assist. My query is: If the freeholder does not agree to a marriage value (part of lease extension fees) of a valuer, how lengthy and easy is the process of going down the route of Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
  • We have owned a leasehold flat for around fifteen years. It now has 57 years left on the lease. Following a year of protracted negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the landlord. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to LVT and would welcome some independent thoughts.
  • I have a lease of 66 years remaining on my flat in Ashby de la Zouch. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
