Her valuer has suggested a figure of £9,000, but has increased this by £2,000 without too much effort. My valuer has recommended a much higher amount. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
