I need to talk to you about a flat in Blackheath, I am thinking of bidding at auction in the next few days. The flat has a short lease and I wanted to inquire about what it would cost to get a lease extension and for your services.

I am considering whether to purchase the freehold or a lease extension of my property in Blackheath and have been in touch with the freeholder, have had quote for around £3k to extend the lease. I plan to simultaneously refinance with Barclays to free up equity. My broker dealing with the remortgage suggested I get two estimates : one to extend the lease and one for outright acquisition .The lease started in 1979 and since then the ground rent has increased from £25.00 per annum to £100 per annum.

My (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?

My father has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Blackheath. House converted into three apartments. He has a lease, which has just over seventy one years unexpired lease. Does he have to do the lease extension at the same time with the other tenants, or could he extend the lease on his own?

My husband and I have owned a leasehold flat for around twenty years. There are 75 years remaining on the lease. After a year of protracted negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the freeholder. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate advice.

Hopefully an easy question for you, how much are the legal fees for a lease extension on a residential property in Blackheath for a three bed flat - section 42 having been issued?

Do you handle lease extensions on land? (a plot of land in Blackheath with 82yrs remaining)

I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my studio flat in Blackheath. 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. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
