Questions and Answers: Epsom and Ewell Lease Extensions

  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Epsom and Ewell. The lease has just 77 years outstanding and ground rent is £25. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Notice of Claim and then assign over the right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I don't have to wait for the 2 year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this may be possible but will it be very time costly to the owner? To add to the complexity it’s the case of an missing landlord, so I am not sure how this will play out.

  • My conveyancers (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?
  • If somebody owns a flat with a lease of under 80 years, they can afford the lease extension by borrowing the funds against the property, and the value of the flat with the new lease will more than cover the cost of the extension, then is there any justification for not extending the lease?
  • My fiance and I have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our one bed flat in Epsom and Ewell. We have a 79 year lease and we wish to increase this to 99.
