Cullercoats Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • Hi, I stumbled upon your website. I'm seeking prices on what a lease extension will cost for a two bedroom second floor purpose built flat based in Cullercoats. It's on sale at the moment but has nearly 77 years left on the lease
  • I want to acquire a leasehold property and lease extension. The owner has been there over two years and will sign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £185,000 and we are very interested but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years remaining so a lease extension is not required. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any advice would be much appreciated.
