  • Just been over two years that I have been in my studio flat in Battlesbridge. I have 61 yrs outstanding on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or a lease extension.

  • We are in the throws of buying a flat (a ground floor flat based inBattlesbridge with share of freehold). Throughout our search, we were always looking at apartments that had a minimum ninety years left. We identified a flat we fell in love with and the estate agent assured that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. Today our advised us the lease only has seventy seven years and thus requires a lease extension. Should we walk away, or should we negotiate our offer?
  • I know that others in the same block had already had a lease extension, and the landlord was reasonable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of avoiding a formal valuation and calculate the initial offer on on the premiums paid by others . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you recommend such a course of action?

Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions?
