Colwyn Bay Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very interested but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 798 years outstanding so a lease extension is not a worry. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without owning the property. Any guidance would be much appreciated.

  • Coming up to 2 years that I have owned my maisonette in Colwyn Bay. I have sixety three years remaining on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or a lease extension. I purchased the property for 320K, it is now roughly 450k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my solicitors about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of funding the lease extension - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?
  • I have 67 years remaining on my lease of a ground floor flat in Colwyn Bay, the Landlord requires a £25k premium for a statutory lease extension of 90yrs. I am looking for advice on whether this amount is reasonable
