Colindale Lease Extensions

Frequently asked questions relating to Colindale Lease Extensions

We agreed with the landlord to a lease extension on our flat based in Colindale, 18k for another 90yrs. How long will it take ?

Do you only undertake lease extensions in Colindale? I own a flat in Abbey Wood with 90 years outstanding, I am looking for a quote from a .

This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs. I do need to clarify things like this before I undertake all the expenses involved in purchasing a property I feel. Do freeholders actually supply their own insurance?

I bought a three bed flat in Colindale. The lease started in 2001 for 99 years. Now I am looking for a lease extension. I am not entirely sure about additional expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?

I have my suspicions that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She put in an offer on a garden flat in Colindale, where the lease is nearon fivety nine years but she was advised by the estate agents that the homeowner had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been told the owner was waiting for her to appoint conveyancers before commencing with the lease extension. Sounds unscrupulous, also it could take months to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?

I own a share of the freehold. There are four apartments in the building. All the leaseholders are now seeking lease extensions. Are you willing to assist us with this situation?

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 been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our one bedroom apartment in Colindale. We have a seventy nine year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has provided us with a premium amount that she is happy with to accept for the extension of the lease, which we are happy with as well and wish to proceed. All we need now is a to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on the lease extension.

I own the freehold to two flats. Someone has the lease on the lower flat in Colindale. I occupy in the top flat. I was reviewing the title deeds yesterday when I noticed that my flat is leasehold. There is 64 years outstanding. If I want to do a lease extension then would I simply be paying for the costs?
