Seller doesn't want to extend the lease for even if I were to pay the money to the seller.

  • We are in the throws of buying a home (a garden flat located inBrixton with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had a minimum eighty five years remaining. We identified a place we liked and the selling agent promised us that the lease term was not an issue. Yesterday our conveyancing practitioners informed us the lease only has seventy seven years and thus needs a lease extension. Do we run away, or do we negotiate our offer?
  • We currently own a 2 bed flat in Brixton 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 78 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. Can you offer some advice on this? Do I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
