Common questions relating to Brook Green Lease Extensions

  • So this is the scenario: I acquired a garden flat in Brook Green that I am now unable to sell due to the lease requiring a lease extension. How long will it take ?
  • I am the registered owner of a one bedroom ground floor purpose built maisonette in Brook Green. The lease started in 2001 for 99 years. Now I am looking to extend the lease. I am uncertain about additional expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?
  • My co-lessees and I are in a block made up five flats in Brook Green and have been offered to buy the freehold for £6000 per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • Is it possible to talk with you about a leasehold property in Brook Green, I am thinking of buying at auction next week. The flat only has a few years outstanding and I wanted to inquire about how much it would cost to get a lease extension and for your services.
  • I'm looking for a flat to buy in Brook Green and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold tenure. I've identified a garden flat I like with a 87 years lease. My research reveals that I can get a lease extension having owned the property for 2 years, but:- Should I anticipate any issue with the mortgage?
  • I will soon view a one bedroom apartment, although not exactly my ideal property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present circumstances. However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 65 years residual lease term on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm guessing that the bank will not be interested in extending the lease. My main concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • My partner and I have a ground floor flat in Brook Green with fivety seven years unexpired. Ten months ago we were quoted a deal to receive a lease extension for another fifty years but also increase ground rent from nominal to a little more..plus a premium I think of about 10k. Finally we have decided to move forward but do we now have to start the negotiations again?
  • My fiance and I are buying a maisonette in Brook Green which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller commenced extending the lease. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our to do a "priority search" on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it right that we have to hold on until the new lease is registered?
  • Hopefully an easy question for you, how much is the premium payable for a lease extension on a residential property in Brook Green for a two bed flat - section 42 having been issued?
  • I'm seeking some advice with regard to extending the lease on my flat. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we have to move 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 LVT route. Can you recommend a good with expertise in lease extensions. Ideally someone in Brook Green area?
