I am going to purchase a flat based in Cottenham. The offer is subject to the lease extension. The current owner’s 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 Nationwide Building Society. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?

I am concerned that my daughter might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a maisonette in Cottenham, where the lease is just under 76 years but she was informed by the selling agents that the owner had extended it to 99 years. She has now been informed the vendor was holding off for her to instruct lawyers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Seems unscrupulous, also it could take time to sort it all out. What do you think?

My partner and I are considering buying a garden flat in Cottenham which is a leasehold. I am wanting to weigh up the advantages and disadvantages of that - what occurs when lease ends, the cost of a lease extension, can the freeholder of the land evict me from my own flat and prevent me from having a lease extension?
