Boxmoor Lease Extensions Example Support Desk Enquiries

  • My wife and I are seeking a lease extension for our apartment based in Boxmoor and we are confused by the communication that we got from our freehold company. How long will it take?
  • Hi. I need a conveyancing practitioners to review my lease extension before it's formalised just to make sure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a reissue with a few small amendments.
  • We purchased a leasehold with a landlord who has failed to give us a counter-notice for a lease extension for our flat in Boxmoor and looking to do a vesting order. Is this something you can help us with?
  • I will soon view a two bedroom flat, although not exactly my dream property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 69 years left on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm guessing that the lender will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My primary concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Boxmoor. The lease has just 56 years balance left and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the homeowner to serve the Initial Notice and then assign over the right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process so that I don't have to wait for the two year qualifying 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 owner? Unfortunately it’s the case of an absent landlord, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • Even though I may not need a lease extension but I do require a vesting order on a property I want to buy in Boxmoor. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, 995 year lease from 1889. Its the garden area.
  • We have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our garden flat in Boxmoor. We have a sixety nine year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has provided us with a financial figure that she is happy with to accept for the extension of the lease, which we are happy with as well and wish to proceed. All we need now is a lawyers to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on our behalf.
  • Me and my husband are acquiring a maisonette in Boxmoor which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the owner is in the process of dealing with a lease extension. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our lawyers to do OS1 search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our lawyers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number has not been issued. Is it correct that we must be patient pending registration of the new lease?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Boxmoor as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
