  • 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 brother and I have owned a leasehold flat for approximately eighteen years. It now has seventy eight years unexpired lease on the lease. Following a year of protracted negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the landlord. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate advice.
  • My nephew is aware that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the landlord was amenable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of avoiding a formal survey and base the initial offer on on the premiums paid by others . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you recommend this course of action?
  • We currently own a one bedroom apartment in Bozeat and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 75 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 20k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Do I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Bozeat 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?
  • I have a lease of seventy seven years remaining on my flat in Bozeat. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. 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?
