  • I am concerned that my niece is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a studio flat in Crossness, where the lease is around seventy eight years but she was informed by the selling agents that the vendor had extended it to 125 years.

What do you think?
  • 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?

  • I'm looking at buying a flat in Crossness at a price of £256,000 the flat has approximately fivety nine years remaining on the lease. I put in an offer subject to the lease being extended... .. that was back in November, hoping I'd be in before Christmas.

  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Crossness and a leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £8,000, but has upped this to £10,000 at the drop of a hat. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to incur?
