  • I am about to view a one bedroom maisonette, although not exactly my dream property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present circumstances. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 59 years left on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm guessing that the vendor will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My main concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?

  • We have a residential flat in Epsom and Ewell with 55 years left.

Finally we have decided to move forward but do we now have to renegotiate?

  • Me and my sister are proceeding with buying a three bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Epsom and Ewell. I was advised by the EA that the lease extension had already been completed while on a viewing (73 years remaining prior to extension). The sales particulars stated "sold with a long lease". It turns out at the point of exchange of contracts we find that there has been no lease extension. The owner supposedly has a quote but no money to extend as a result the flat owner wants to exchange and use the 10% deposit for the lease extension. My question is why has this only just been brought to my attention by my conveyancing practitioners?
  • I own a purpose-built apartment located in a large development in Epsom and Ewell. The leasehold interest in the apartment on a ninety five year lease started from 11th January 1969 with a set yearly rent of 20. I would like to obtain a lease extension. Is it possible for me to talk with someone to discuss my options please?
  • My husband and I have owned a leasehold flat for around eighteen years. There are 72 years outstanding on the lease. After a year of protracted negotiations through my property lawyers and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the landlord. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to LVT and would welcome advice.
  • I note that your website states the anticipated fee to extend a lease is £495. Is that the all inclusive cost including value added tax and the HMLR fee? The price has already been agreed with the freeholder for the lease extension for my studio flat in Epsom and Ewell
