  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Burnham. The lease has only sixety eight years outstanding and ground rent is £95. Is it possible for the vendor to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign this right to me as the purchaser on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting for the two year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is achievable but will it be very time costly to the seller? To add to the complexity the freeholder is absent, so I am not sure how this will play out.
