I think our conveyancing practitioners has advised us incorrectly concerning a lease extension and I would like to know how to go about making a formal complaint
I'm wanting to make an offer on a house in Birkenshaw but I'm concerned about it being leasehold. Do you know what title absolute means and is this regarding the lease? Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Alliance & Leicester giving us the mortgage now?

I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Birkenshaw. The lease has just seventy six years left and ground rent is £95. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Initial Notice and then transfer over the right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process so that I don't have to wait for the 2 year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is legal but will it be very time consuming to the vendor? To add to the complexity the freeholder can not be found, so I am not sure how this will play out.
My solicitors (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?
Me and my wife would like to know the cost of a lease extension valuation for a property based in Birkenshaw. Is this something you can help us with?
My husband and I are hoping to acquire a home (a three bed flat inBirkenshaw with share of freehold). Throughout our search, we were always looking at apartments that had at least eighty five years balance left. We came across a place we fell in love with and the selling agent promised us that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our solicitors informed us the lease only has 62 years and thus requires a lease extension. Should we walk away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
