Eccleston Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • Hello. I need someone to have a look at my lease extension prior to it being completed just to ensure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a surrender and regrant with a few small amendments.
  • I have been in touch with my freeholder for a lease extension for my flat in Eccleston. His solicitors has been in contact concerning costs etc. I need a quote for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The property currently has a 99 YR lease which started February 1992.
  • I will soon view a one bedroom maisonette, although not exactly my dream property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 54 years remaining on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm assuming that the lender will not be interested in extending the lease. My primary concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Eccleston. The lease has just 56 years remaining and ground rent is £95. Is it possible for the current owner to serve the Notice of Claim and then transfer this right to me as the buyer once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the two 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 legal but will it be very time consuming to the seller? Unfortunately it’s the case of an missing freeholder, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • I am in need of a lease extension for my flat in Eccleston and was advised previously that I must get the funds readily available, is this the case or can I start the process beforehand?
  • I am planning to extend the lease on my ground floor flat in Eccleston I am looking for a local company to calculate the premium. I have a quote from the landlord. I would like to go forward as soon as possible, but for the right premium and fee.
  • I own the freehold of a 2 bedroom flat in Eccleston. The leaseholders have 76 years on a lease and wants to purchase another 90 years. The have offered me 25k. Is this around the right price?
  • I am planning on remortgaging my maisonette in Eccleston and the next lender that I am looking to switch to needs at least 85 years remaining on the lease in order for them to take the mortgage forward. We currently have around 67 years on the leasehold so require some advice, guidance, and some quotes to set the wheels in motion for a lease extension
  • We currently own a one bedroom apartment in Eccleston and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has sixety eight years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 13k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Should I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my one bedroom apartment in Eccleston. 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. Can you recommend a good solicitors who specialises in lease extensions?
