  • This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs.

  • I plan on buying a flat based in Ferring and Goring. My offer is subject to the lease extension. The owner’s property lawyers has served the Notice of Claim. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Virgin Money. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?

Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign over the right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting for the 2 year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later?
