However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 70 years outstanding on the lease.

  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Fleetwood. The lease has just 71 years balance left and ground rent is £95. Is it possible for the seller to serve the Notice of Claim and then assign this right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting for the two 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 consuming to the homeowner? To add to the complexity the freeholder can not be found, so I am not sure how this will play out.

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 lower flat in Fleetwood. I occupy in the top flat.

Her so called valuation expert has suggested a figure of £9,000, but has increased this to £10,000 at the drop of a hat. My surveyor has come back with £12,520.

If not, what charges would I be likely to face?
