  • I am interested in getting a lease extension for a flat in Duston and want to use a local . Is there a that you can recommend?
  • I am going to purchase a flat based in Duston. The offer is subject to the lease extension. The homeowner’s has served the Notice of Claim. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Alliance & Leicester . Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • I am interested in getting my lease extended and was advised previously that I must get the funds readily available, is this the case or can I start the process beforehand?
  • Me and my husband have owned a leasehold flat for approximately fifteen years. It now has 60 years remaining on the lease. Following a year of difficult negotiations through my and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the freeholder. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to LVT and would welcome advice.
  • I am hoping to extend the lease on my studio flat in Duston I am looking for a local company to calculate the premium. I have a premium value that the freeholder has given me. I would like to go forward as soon as possible, but for the right premium and fee.
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Duston and a leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided a figure of £9,000, but has increased this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My valuer has suggested a much higher premium. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
