I'm about to make an offer on a house in Eye but I'm concerned about it being leasehold. Do you know what title absolute means and is this regarding the lease? Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Santander giving us the mortgage now?
I want to purchase a leasehold property and lease extension. The seller has been there for three years and will assign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?

Me and my sister are acquiring a one bedroom apartment in Eye which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the owner commenced dealing with a lease extension. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our solicitors to do a pre-completion search on the property title. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our property lawyers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it right that we have to be patient until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
I'm seeking some assistance concerning extending the lease on my apartment. The plan is to do this next summer as we need to move 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 LVT route. Should I look to complete the lease extension now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
We currently own a studio flat in Eye 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 58 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 15k plus to get a lease extension. Can you offer some advice on this? Should I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
