  • My fiance and I are purchasing a three bedroom first floor purpose built flat in Brockley which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor commenced dealing with a lease extension. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the house buying process is for our property lawyers to do a "priority search" on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our conveyancers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number is not known. Is it right that we have to hold on until the new lease is registered?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Brockley 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 was hoping you might be able to tell me the process of how to apply for a lease extension for my ground floor flat in Brockley
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my ground floor flat in Brockley. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
