Cottingham Lease Extensions

Cottingham Lease Extensions Example Support Desk Enquiries

My wife has a flat in Cottingham which we have just put on the market. The leasehold has just under sixety eight years balance left on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested. Can you please assist on how we get started on a lease extension? Many thanks.

I am looking to extend the lease on my two bedroom first floor purpose built flat in Cottingham which will have seventy eight years unexpired lease in June. What fees apply?

Hi. I need a to have a look at my lease extension before it's formalised just to make sure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a reissue with a few small amendments.

I'm thinking of buying a one bedroom apartment (leasehold) but the freeholder has been absent for circa 15yrs. My question is would it be cheaper to try to acquire the freehold or to get a lease extension and apply for right to manage?

We are in a block containing four flats in Cottingham and have been offered to buy the freehold for 5k per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?

I am thinking about whether to purchase the freehold or a lease extension of my property in Cottingham and have been in touch with the freeholder, have had quote for around £4k to extend the lease. I plan to simultaneously remortgage with Alliance & Leicester to release of equity. The adviser dealing with the remortgage suggested I get two estimates : one to extend the lease and one for the freehold purchase .The lease began in 1972 and since then the ground rent has increased from £25.00 per annum to £300 per annum.

I am concerned that my niece is being hoodwinked. She put in an offer on a garden flat in Cottingham, where the lease is about 62 years but she was informed by the estate agents that the flat owner had extended it to 99 years. She has now been informed the owner was waiting for her to instruct conveyancers before commencing with the lease extension. Sounds odd to me, also it could take a while to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?

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?

Do you handle lease extensions on land? (a plot of land in Cottingham with 82yrs remaining)

I have a lease of seventy five years remaining on my flat in Cottingham. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
