  • I'm living with my mum and dad but have a ground floor flat in Coventry let out which has a 69 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 Coventry 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 19k. Not sure sure whether to hold on or sell the flat?
  • Coming up to two years that I have owned my 2 bed flat in Coventry. I have 60 yrs remaining on the lease. I am now wanting to purchase a share of freehold or a lease extension. I purchased the property for 320K, it is now roughly 425k. 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: In terms of surveyors - how do I go about finding one?

  • We are buying a maisonette in Coventry which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller is in the process of extending the lease. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our conveyancers to do a "priority search" on the property title. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our property lawyers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we must wait until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
  • Just a quick one, how much does it cost for a lease extension on a residential property in Coventry for a two bed flat - sec 42 having been issued?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Coventry where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £9,000, but has upped this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My valuer has recommended a much higher amount. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I handle the matter myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to incur?
