  • My lawyers (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?
  • We have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our one bedroom apartment in East Grinstead. We have a 71 year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has given us with a financial figure that she is happy with to accept for the extension of the lease, which we are happy with as well and wish to proceed. All we need now is a solicitors to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on the lease extension.
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in East Grinstead where the leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has provided a figure of £9,000, but has increased this to £10,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what charges would I be likely to face?
