Top Ten Questions relating to Bookham Lease Extensions
The intention is to sell our ground floor flat in Bookham but we may require a lease extension, or at least cover the costs of our purchaser. Are you able to help me find someone to help us?
My neighbours and I are in a building consisting of four flats in Bookham and have been offered to buy the freehold for £6000 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?
How much will I need to spend and what is the best way to start the lease extension process? I have nearon fivety seven years outstanding on my lease on a maisonette in Bookham. I have contacted the agent who represent the head landlord and they gave me the number of the surveyor. I have contacted the valuer but I am not receiving any kind of response.
I am concerned that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a ground floor flat in Bookham, where the lease is nearly fivety four years but she was told by the selling agents that the flat owner had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been advised the owner was waiting for her to retain solicitors ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds unscrupulous, also it could take months to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?
I am a landlord of a block of flats in Bookham, and the tenants are in the process of being issued lease extensions. I should hopefully get funds next week. Are there any tax implications, the property is in joint names with my partner ?
My conveyancing practitioners (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?
I am in need of some help with a lease extension. I live in Edinburgh but the flat in question is based in Bookham. I would be grateful if you can give me a call when you get a chance to discuss the case.
My fiance and I are acquiring a one bedroom first floor purpose built maisonette in Bookham which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the vendor commenced dealing with a lease extension. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our solicitors to do OS1 search on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our property lawyers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number is not known. Is it correct that we have to be patient until the new lease is registered?
Me and my sister are hoping to buy a flat (a garden flat inBookham with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at properties that had a minimum 84 years outstanding. We identified a apartment we fell in love with and the estate agent promised us that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. Today our conveyancers informed us the lease only has 77 years and thus needs a lease extension. Do 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?
I am the registered freeholder to two flats. Someone has the lease on the ground flat in Bookham. I occupy in the upper flat. I was looking at the title deeds recently when I noticed that my flat has a lease on it. There is fivety six years balance left. Can one carry out a lease extension without retaining a conveyancing practitioners?
