Examples of recent questions relating to Lease Extensions in Burroughs, The

  • I want to acquire a leasehold property and lease extension. The owner has been there over two years and will sign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very keen on but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 928 years balance left so a lease extension is not a concern. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without owning the property. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
  • In 2012 I purchased a leasehold flat in Burroughs, The. I have built a huge extension and have not informed my freeholder. What are my options?
  • My partner and I have a ground floor flat in Burroughs, The with sixety nine years remaining. Ten months ago we were quoted a deal to grant a lease extension for another thirty years but also increase ground rent from nominal to a little more..plus a premium I think of approximately 10k. We have now decided to move forward but do we now have to renegotiate?
  • We would like to extend our lease. We will have been in the property for two years as of 22nd Jan 2016. It has around 78 years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension with a further 90 years as quickly and stress free as possible.
  • Me and my sister are proceeding with a purchase of a one bed flat in Burroughs, The. I was told that the lease had been extended (sixety three years remaining prior to extension). The description on the listing stated "sold with a long lease". It transpires at the point of exchange of contracts we find that there has been no lease extension. The owner supposedly has a quote but no funds to extend and consequently the owner wants to exchange and use the 10% deposit for the lease extension. My question is why has this only just been brought to my attention by my conveyancing practitioners?
  • I am in need of some help with a lease extension. I live in Belfast but the flat in question is based in Burroughs, The. I would be grateful if you can give me a call when you get a chance to discuss the case.
  • If a leaseholder owns a flat with a lease of under 80 years, they can afford the lease extension by borrowing the funds against the property, and the value of the flat with the new lease will more than cover the cost of the extension, then is there any justification for not extending the lease?
  • Are you able to provide an estimate to extend my mum’s lease on a garden flat in Burroughs, The. She recently got a figure from the landlord for a lease extension but I am not sure it is reasonable.
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my ground floor flat in Burroughs, The. 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. Can you recommend a good property lawyers who specialises in lease extensions?
