Common questions relating to Gosforth Lease Extensions

  • I’m just looking for a maisonette to purchase in the Gosforth area and was after more information on what the likely fees would be to extend a lease? It has 59 years as a balance left...
  • I am the owner of a maisonnette together with the freehold reversion. The owners of the upstairs flat have asked to extend the lease what do I need to do?
  • I'm considering purchasing a three bed flat (leasehold) but the freeholder has been missing for around 15yrs. I wonder whether it will be less expensive to try to purchase the freehold or to extend lease and apply for RTM?
  • What will it cost me and what is the best way to get a lease extension started? I have about 57 years remaining on my lease on a one bed flat in Gosforth. I have emailed the managing agents who act on behalf of the freeholder and they gave me the number of the surveyor. I have contacted the surveyor but I am not receiving any returned calls.
  • I am interested in getting my lease extended and was advised previously that I must get the funds readily available, is this the case or can I start the process beforehand?
  • I am looking for advice as I am interested in a property that has only a 58 year lease and therefore requires a lease extension. Is it possible for me to call someone to discuss my options please?
  • My brother and I would like to know the cost of a lease extension valuation for a property based in Gosforth. Is this something you can help us with?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Gosforth and a leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has given a figure of £9,000, but has upped this to £10,000 without too much effort. My valuer has come back with £12,520. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need 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 fee would I be likely to incur?
  • I'm hoping for some help concerning extending the lease on my maisonette. The plan is to do this next winter as we have to move 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 LVT route. Do I look to complete the lease extension now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
  • I have a lease of sixety seven years remaining on my flat in Gosforth. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
