Common questions relating to Chalfont St Peter Lease Extensions

  • I'm planning on purchasing a three bedroom ground floor purpose built flat (leasehold) but the landlord has been missing for slightly more than 15yrs. My question is would it be less expensive to try to acquire the reversionary title or to extend lease and apply for RTM?
  • In 2010 I purchased a leasehold apartment in Chalfont St Peter. I have built a large extension and have not informed my freeholder. What should I do?
  • I will soon view a two bedroom maisonette, although not exactly my perfect property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has fivety five years balance left on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm guessing that the bank will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My primary concern is would it be difficult to sell on without a lease extension?
  • I am a freeholder of a block of flats in Chalfont St Peter, and the leaseholders are in the process of being given lease extensions. I should hopefully get the money next week. As I am not on self assessment do I get in touch with the tax authorities ?
  • My fiance and I have owned a leasehold flat for approximately fifteen years. There are seventy three years left on the lease. Following a year of difficult negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the freeholder. I am at a decision point on whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate some independent thoughts.
  • Coming up to two years that I have owned my one bedroom apartment in Chalfont St Peter. I have sixety one years unexpired lease on the lease. I am now wanting to buy a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 350K, it is now roughly 450k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of funding the lease extension - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?
  • Me and my sister are acquiring a 2 bed flat in Chalfont St Peter which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller commenced dealing with a lease extension. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the house buying process is for our to do a pre-completion search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number has not been issued. Is it right that we have to hold on pending registration of the new lease?
