  • 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?
  • Me and my wife are considering purchasing a studio flat in Gospel Oak which is a leasehold.

  • We are proceeding with buying a one bed flat in Gospel Oak. I was advised that the lease had been lengthened (sixety nine years remaining prior to extension). The sales particulars said "sold with a long lease". It turns out as we are about to exchange of contracts we find that the lease has not been extended. The flat owner apparently has a quote but no money to extend and consequently the current owner wishes to exchange and use the my deposit for the lease extension. My question is as the lease hasn't been extended is there not a danger that Nationwide Building Society won't lend on a lease?

  • If a leaseholder owns a flat with a lease of less than 80 years, they can afford the lease extension by borrowing the funds against the property, and the value of the flat with the new lease will more than cover the cost of the extension, then is there any justification for not doing it?
  • I'm intent on purchasing an apartment in Gospel Oak at a price of £256,000 the flat has something like seventy three years remaining on the lease. I put in an offer conditional upon the lease being renewed... .. that was back in June, hoping I'd have moved in by now. The seller has just come back saying they'll knock £4k off if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm unsure if I should take them up on the offer
