  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Beeston and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided 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 a FTT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what charges would I be likely to incur?
