  • I own 70% in a shared ownership flat with a housing association and I am considering a lease extension on a lease which is now around fivety eight years. I need a at my end. Can you advise please? I live near Choppington and have a mortgage with Yorkshire Building Society.
  • Hopefully an easy question for you, how much are the legal fees for a lease extension on a residential property in Choppington for a one bed flat - sec 42 having been issued?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Choppington as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
  • Do you handle lease extensions on land? (a plot of land in Choppington with 82yrs remaining)
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my one bedroom apartment in Choppington. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. 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?
