  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Bootle. The lease has just 59 years remaining and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign this right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting 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 achievable but will it be very time costly to the seller? Unfortunately the landlord can not be found, so I am not sure how does it work.

  • Just been over 2 years that I have been in my garden flat in Bootle. I have 55 years outstanding on the lease. I am now wanting to buy a share of freehold or extend my lease. I acquired the property for 342K, it is now roughly 425k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: Is there a benefit in getting a Bootle based or any will do fine?

Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
