Recently asked questions relating to Colnbrook Lease Extensions

  • Hi, I just randomly found this site. I'm looking for prices on what a lease extension will cost for a garden flat located in Colnbrook. It's on the market at the moment but has nearly fivety five years left on the lease
  • My wife has a flat located in Colnbrook which we have just put on the market. The leasehold has slightly more than sixety one years outstanding 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? Many thanks.
  • I plan on buying a flat located in Colnbrook. My offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The current owner’s conveyancing practitioners has given to the freeholder the Notice of Claim. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Bank of Ireland. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • We own a leasehold with a landlord who has not given us a counter-notice for a lease extension for our flat in Colnbrook and looking to do a vesting order. Is this something you can do for us?
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Colnbrook. The lease has just fivety seven years remaining and ground rent is £25. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Notice of Claim and then transfer over the right to me as the buyer on the day of completion 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 costly to the current owner? To add to the complexity the freeholder can not be found, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • My husband and I have a leasehold flat in Colnbrook with 69 years to run. Ten months ago we were quoted a deal to have a lease extension for another thirty years but also increase ground rent from notional to a little more..plus a premium I think of approximately 14k. We have now decided to go ahead but do we now have to renegotiate?
  • I am interested in getting my lease extended and was advised previously that I must get the funds readily available, is this the case or can I start the process beforehand?
  • My conveyancing practitioners (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?
  • My son has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Colnbrook. House split into three flats. He has a lease, which has approximately 77 yrs remaining. How much would it cost for a lease extension and how many years would he need to extend by?
  • Are you able to provide an estimate to extend my aunt’s lease on a garden flat in Colnbrook. She recently got a figure from the landlord for a lease extension but I am not sure it is reasonable.
