Sample questions relating to Faringdon Lease Extensions

  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years unexpired so a lease extension is not required. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for twenty years without the house being ours. Any help would be much appreciated.
  • Hello. I need someone to have a look at my lease extension before it's completed just to make sure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a surrender and regrant with a few minor changes.

  • How much will it cost me and what is the best way to get a lease extension started? I have nearly fivety five years unexpired lease on my lease on a studio flat in Faringdon.

  • I have a share of the freehold. There are three apartments in the house. All the leaseholders are now requiring lease extensions. What's your solicitors fee?
  • 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?
  • I am the registered freeholder to two flats. Someone has the lease on the garden flat in Faringdon. I reside in the upper flat.
