  • My wife has an apartment in Copthorne which we are about to put on the market. The leasehold has nearly fivety five years outstanding on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested. I am after more information on how we get started on a lease extension? Thank you.

  • I am going to purchase a flat located in Copthorne. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The current owner’s conveyancing practitioners has served 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?
  • My partner and I have a one bedroom flat in Copthorne. There is 81 years to run on the lease and we want a lease extension. How much will it likely cost to get a lease extension by, say,fifty years

  • My conveyancers (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?
  • I'm living at mother and father but have a one bedroom apartment in Copthorne let out which has a 62 year lease. Mortgage broker said I can remortgage as a buy to let instead of consent to let and release 55-60k which on top of a new mortgage based on my income. Not much about in Copthorne for me to get my own place. If I sell I will only get 150-160 due to tenant (8 months left on AST) and lease. A lease extension will cost 13k. Should I keep or sell the flat?
  • I note that your website states the likely fee to extend a lease is £495. Is that the all inclusive cost including value added tax and the land registry fee?
