  • We have seen a house for sale for £185,000 and we are very keen on but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years left 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 correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for twenty years without the house being ours. Any advice would be much appreciated.
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Dawlish. The lease has only 63 years residual lease term and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Notice of Claim and then transfer over the right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the 2 year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is achievable but will it be very time costly to the homeowner? Unfortunately the landlord is absent, so I am not sure how this will play out.

  • 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 own 70% in a shared ownership property with a housing association and I am considering a lease extension on a lease which is now around sixety years. I need a at my end. Can you advise please? I live near Dawlish and have a mortgage with Lloyds TSB Bank.
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my garden flat in Dawlish. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
