  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 798 years residual lease term so a lease extension is not a worry. 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 the house being ours. Any help would be much appreciated.
  • I'm looking for an apartment to purchase in Cambourne and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold tenure.

I've read that I can apply for a lease extension after a couple of years, but:- Should I be looking for some conditions that would prevent me for getting a lease extension?
  • We wish to extend our lease. We will have been in the place for two years as of 1st March 2016. It has about seventy seven years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension by way of an additional 90 years as quickly and stress free as is reasonably achievable.
  • My lawyers (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
  • Hi I own the freehold title in a 3 bedroom flat in Cambourne. The leaseholder has a fivety five year lease and would like to purchase further 125 years. He is offering me £27,000 but I am not sure if this is in the right ballpark

  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my garden flat in Cambourne. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then.

Can you recommend a good solicitors who specialises in lease extensions?
