I'm looking for a flat to purchase in Bembridge and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold title. I've identified a one bedroom apartment I like with a 87 years lease.

I am about to view a two bedroom maisonette, although not exactly my perfect property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has sixety three years balance left on the lease.

Me and my OH had entered into a purchase of a 2 bed flat in Bembridge. I was advised by the EA that the lease extension had already been completed while on a viewing (75 years remaining prior to extension). The sales particulars stated "sold with a long lease". It transpires at the point of exchange of contracts we find that there has been no lease extension. The vendor supposedly has a quote but no money to extend and consequently the flat owner wants to exchange and use the 10% deposit for the lease extension. My question is as the lease hasn't been extended is there not a danger that Clydesdale won't lend on a lease?

I own the freehold reversion of a property in Bembridge where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has provided a figure of £8,000, but has increased this to £10,000 at the drop of a hat. My valuer has come back with £12,520.

If not, what charges would I be likely to incur?
We currently own a garden flat in Bembridge and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has seventy seven years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 15k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Should I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Bembridge as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
