Chiswick Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • I am looking for a rough estimate of what a lease extension will cost for a flat I would like to buy. It has 61 years balance left.
  • I bought a garden flat in Chiswick. The lease started in 2001 for 99 years. Now I am looking for a lease extension. I am uncertain about further expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?
  • I am looking into the costs of carrying out a lease extension for my one bedroom second floor purpose built flat in Chiswick, and would like some figures on that.
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Chiswick. The lease has only sixety one years balance left and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the current owner to serve the Notice of Claim and then transfer this right to me as the buyer once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the two year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is achievable but will it be very time consuming to the homeowner? To add to the complexity it’s the case of an absent landlord, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • I am a freeholder of a block of flats in Chiswick, and the leaseholders are in the process of being granted lease extensions. I anticipate receiving funds next week. As I am not on self assessment do I contact the Inland Revenue ?

  • My husband and I have a residential flat in Chiswick with fivety five years remaining. Last year we were quoted a deal to receive a lease extension for a further 25 years but also increase ground rent from notional to £250 per annum..plus a premium I think of about 16k. Finally we have decided to proceed but do we now have to start the negotiations again?

  • I am currently in the process of refinancing my garden flat in Chiswick and the bank that I am looking to move to requires a minimum 85 years on the leasehold of my property in order for them to progress matters.

  • We currently own a one bedroom apartment in Chiswick and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 55 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 15k plus to get a lease extension. Can you offer some advice on this? Do I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
