Lease Extensions in Chislehurst

Common questions relating to Chislehurst Lease Extensions

Hi, I stumbled upon your website. I'm seeking prices on what a lease extension will cost for a studio flat located in Chislehurst. It's up for sale at the moment but has just under 72 years left on the lease

I am interested in getting a lease extension for a flat in Chislehurst and want to use a local . Are you able to help me find a ?

I'm looking for a flat to buy in Chislehurst and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold concept. I've identified a place I like with a 87 years lease. My research reveals that I can apply for a lease extension having owned the property for 2 years, but:- Should I be looking at some caveats that would prevent me for getting a lease extension?

I am about to view a two bedroom flat, although not exactly my ideal property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 61 years remaining on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm guessing that the lender will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My main concern is would it be difficult to sell on without a lease extension?

How much will it cost me and what is the best way to start the lease extension process? I have roughly 67 years remaining on my lease on a maisonette in Chislehurst. I have emailed the managing agents who act on behalf of the landlord and they provided me with the number of the valuer. I have contacted the valuer but I am not receiving any calls back.

My wife and I are proceeding with a purchase of a three bedroom second floor purpose built flat in Chislehurst. I was advised by the EA that the lease extension had already been completed while on a viewing (61 years outstanding prior to extension). The description on the listing said "sold with a long lease". It transpires as we are about to exchange of contracts we find that there has been no lease extension. The vendor apparently has a quote but no funds to extend and consequently the homeowner intends to exchange and use the deposit monies for the lease extension. My question is have the estate agents breached any law by misrepresenting the position concerning the lease term?

We have owned a leasehold flat for about twenty years. It now has 73 years left on the lease. After a year of difficult negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the freeholder. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate some independent thoughts.

It says on your website the anticipated fee to extend a lease is £495. Is that the all inclusive cost including value added tax and the land registry fee? The premium has already been negotiated with the freeholder for the lease extension for my studio flat in Chislehurst

We are are hoping to complete on a garden flat in Chislehurst which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller is in the process of extending the lease. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our to do a "priority search" on the property title. The concern 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 must wait pending registration of the new lease?

I have 77 years remaining on my lease of a ground floor flat in Chislehurst, the Landlord requires a £15k premium for a statutory lease extension of 90yrs. I am looking for advice on whether this amount is reasonable
