Sample questions relating to Becontree Lease Extensions

  • I want to purchase a leasehold property and lease extension. The vendor has been there over 2 years and will assign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?
  • This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs. I do need to clarify things like this before I undertake all the expenses involved in purchasing a property I feel. Do freeholders actually supply their own insurance?
  • The terms for the lease on my apartment in Becontree are 99 years from 1 Sep 1988. Please provide me a quote for a lease extension if I give you more information please?
  • I'm looking for an apartment to buy in Becontree and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold arrangement. I've found a three bed flat I like with a 82 years lease. My research reveals that I can go for a lease extension having owned the property for 2 years, but:- Should I anticipate any issue with the mortgage?
  • My apartment in Becontree is up for sale and I have a hopefully firm offer. There is 79 years unexpired on the lease and I want to extend the lease. What does it cost on average to get a lease extension by, say,35 years
  • We would like to extend our lease. We will have been in the place for two years as of 22nd Jan 2016. It has around sixety eight years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension by way of an additional 90 years as expeditiously and stress free as is reasonably achievable.
  • My conveyancing practitioners (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?
  • I am in need of some help with a lease extension. I live in Dublin but the flat in question is based in Becontree. I would be grateful if you can give me a call when you get a chance to discuss the case.
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Becontree and a leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has given a figure of £9,000, but has increased this by £2,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I handle the matter myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to incur?
  • I require an estimate to extend my mother’s lease on a garden flat in Becontree. She recently got a price from the landlord for a lease extension but I am not sure it is too high.
