Bicester Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • I own a leasehold flat in the Bicester area and was enquiring if I could get a lease extension. What are your processes and charges. Has sixety nine years outstanding
  • I want to acquire a leasehold property and lease extension. The owner has been there over 2 years and will sign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 798 years unexpired so a lease extension is not a worry. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any information would be much appreciated.
  • I am looking for a in Bicester and they need to be on the Bank of Ireland approved conveyancers panel as we need a lease extension and refinance simultaneously. Are you able to recommend a ?
  • 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?
  • I have contacted my freeholder to extend my lease for my flat in Bicester. Her has been in contact regarding fees etc. I need a ball park figure for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The property currently has a 99 YR lease which started July 1993.
  • I bought a garden flat in Bicester. The lease commenced in 1991 for 99 years. Now I am looking to extend the lease. I am in the dark about additional expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?
  • We are in a block made up three flats in Bicester and have been offered to buy the freehold for £5000 per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • Although I do not need a lease extension but I do require a vesting order on a property I want to purchase in Bicester. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, Nine hundred and ninety nine year lease from 1889. Its the garden area.
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my maisonette in Bicester. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions?
