Crewkerne Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • My partner has a flat based in Crewkerne which we are about to put on the market. The leasehold has just over 63 years unexpired on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested. I am interested in more information on how we commence arranging a lease extension? Thank you.
  • I have contacted my freeholder to extend my lease for my flat in Crewkerne. Her has been in contact with charges etc. I need a quote for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The flat currently has a 99 YR lease which started April 1994.
  • I'm planning on purchasing a one bedroom first floor purpose built flat (leasehold) but the landlord has been missing for about 15yrs. I wonder whether it will be cheaper to try to purchase the reversionary title or to get a lease extension and apply for RTM?
  • The terms for the lease on my apartment in Crewkerne are 101 years from 10 Jan 1990. Can you provide me a quote to extend the lease if I give you more details please?
  • I have a leasehold apartment in Crewkerne. I have built a huge extension and have not informed the leaseholder. What should I do?
  • I'm looking for an apartment to buy in Crewkerne and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold title. I've found a maisonette I like with a 87 years lease. I've read that I can apply for a lease extension after 2 years, but:- Should I anticipate any issue with my proposed mortgage lender National Westminster Bank?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Crewkerne 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 surveyor has suggested a much higher figure. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I handle the matter myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to incur?
  • Are you able to provide an estimate to extend my aunt’s lease on a garden flat in Crewkerne. She already has a price from the landlord for a lease extension but I am unclear whether it is too high.
  • We currently own a maisonette in Crewkerne and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 76 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 15k plus to get a lease extension. Can you offer some advice on this? Should I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • Do you handle lease extensions on land? (a plot of land in Crewkerne with 82yrs remaining)
