Frequently asked questions relating to Forest Hall Lease Extensions

  • We are looking for lease extension for our two bed flat located in Forest Hall and we are confused by the communication that we got from our freehold company. Are you willing to help us with this situation?
  • I agreed with the head landlord for a lease extension on our flat located in Forest Hall, 15k for another 90yrs. Can you please guide us with this situation ?
  • Hi. I need a lawyers to review my lease extension ahead of it being completed just to ensure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a surrender and regrant with a few minor 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 would like to have my residential flat leasehold extension premium valued. The flat is in Forest Hall, and my lease will reach fivety five years this August. Could you advise me about the costs and time-frame to obtain your valuation? Also, do you represent your clients at the Tribunal court?
  • My co-lessees and I are in a block containing three flats in Forest Hall and have been offered to buy the freehold for £6000 per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • I am concerned that my daughter might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She submitted an offer on a studio flat in Forest Hall, where the lease is approximately fivety five years but she was told by the estate agents that the seller had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been advised the owner was waiting for her to retain conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds underhand, also it may take months to sort it all out. What do you think?
  • Me and my wife have owned a leasehold flat for approximately fifteen years. It now has seventy four years unexpired lease on the lease. After a year of difficult negotiations through my lawyers and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the landlord. I am at a decision point on whether to accept it or go to LVT and would appreciate advice.
  • I am currently in the process of remortgaging my garden flat in Forest Hall and the new lender that I am looking to move to requires a minimum 85 years on the leasehold of my property in order for them to take the mortgage forward. I have found that I currently have around 59 years on the leasehold so require some advice, guidance, and some quotes to get the wheels in motion for a lease extension
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my maisonette in Forest Hall. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point 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 tribunal route. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
