  • Hello, I am looking somewhere around or in Chandlers Ford 8-10 years lease remaining houses. I dont know if I am on the correct site. Can I find lease remaining houses from here?
  • My partner has an apartment in Chandlers Ford which we are about to put on the market. The leasehold has nearon sixety years remaining on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested. Can you please assist on how we commence arranging a lease extension? Thank you.
  • We have seen a house for sale for £185,000 and we are very interested but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 928 years unexpired so a lease extension is not an issue. 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 twenty years without the house being ours. Any advice would be much appreciated.
  • I have been in touch with my freeholder to extend my lease for my flat in Chandlers Ford. Her has been in contact regarding costs etc. I need a ball park figure for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The flat currently has a 99 YR lease which started February 1987.
  • I am the registered owner of a garden flat in Chandlers Ford. The lease commenced in 2001 for 99 years. Now I am wanting to extend the lease. I am uncertain about further expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?
  • I'm considering purchasing a one bedroom second floor purpose built maisonette (leasehold) but the landlord has been missing for just under 15yrs. I wonder whether it will be less expensive to try to buy the freehold or to extend lease and apply for right to manage?
  • My (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?
  • We have owned a leasehold flat for approximately eighteen years. There are seventy seven years outstanding on the lease. After a year of protracted negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the landlord. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate advice.
  • Are you able to provide an estimate to extend my mother’s lease on a ground floor flat in Chandlers Ford. She recently got a figure from the landlord for a lease extension but I am not sure it is reasonable.
