Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Leeds Building Society giving us the mortgage now?

However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has fivety eight years left on the lease.

  • We would like to extend our lease. We will have been in the property for 2 years as of 22nd May 2015. It has slightly less than seventy one years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension with a further 90 years as expeditiously and stress free as possible.

  • We are hoping to buy a flat (a ground floor flat located inCambourne with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had a minimum 84 years unexpired. We came across a apartment we fell in love with and the selling agent promised us that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. Yesterday our property lawyers informed us the lease only has 63 years and therefore requires a lease extension. Should we run away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Cambourne where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £9,000, but has upped this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My valuer has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to face?
