Flint Mountain Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • We agreed with the head landlord for a lease extension on our flat located in Flint Mountain, 17k for a further 90yrs. What's your solicitors fee ?
  • I’m just looking for a ground floor flat to buy in the Flint Mountain area and was curious what the likely fees would be for a lease extension? It has 56 years unexpired...
  • Hi. I need a to review my lease extension ahead of it being formalised just to ensure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a reissue with a few small changes.
  • 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 do need to clarify things like this before I undertake all the expenses involved in purchasing a property I feel. Do freeholders actually supply their own insurance?
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Flint Mountain. The lease has just sixety five years residual lease term and ground rent is £25. Is it possible for the current owner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign this right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process 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 is achievable but will it be very time consuming to the vendor? Unfortunately it’s the case of an missing landlord, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • I am concerned that my niece is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Flint Mountain, where the lease is roughly seventy years but she was told by the selling agents that the flat owner had extended it to 125 years. Only now has she been advised the current owner was waiting for her to appoint lawyers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds devious, also it could take time to sort it all out. What do you think?
  • We wish to extend our lease. We will have been in the apartment for 2 years as of 22nd May 2015. It has around 72 years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension by way of an additional 90 years as quickly and stress free as possible.
  • Even though I may not need a lease extension but I do need a vesting order on a property I want to purchase in Flint Mountain. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, 995 year lease from 1895. Its the garden area.
  • I'm intent on buying a flat in Flint Mountain at a price of £210,000 the flat has just under seventy one years unexpired on the lease. I put in an offer subject to a lease extension... .. that was back in August, hoping I'd have moved in before Christmas. They have just come back saying that they are prepared to reduce the price by£7k if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm not sure if I should take them up on the offer
  • Are you able to provide an estimate to extend my mother’s lease on a one bed flat in Flint Mountain. She recently got a price from the freeholder for a lease extension but I am far from certain if it is too expensive.
