  • Just been over 2 years that I have been in my studio flat in Biggleswade. I have seventy yrs outstanding on the lease. I am now wanting to buy a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 342K, it is now roughly 445k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my solicitors about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of financing - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?

  • I know that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the landlord seemed reasonable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of avoiding a formal survey and calculate the initial offer on on the prices by others . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you recommend this course of action?
