I have my suspicions that my niece is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a garden flat in Castleford, where the lease is around seventy eight years but she was told by the selling agents that the owner had extended it to 99 years.

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. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
