  • I would like to have my residential flat leasehold extension premium assessed. The flat is in Great Shelford, and my lease will reach 61 years this August. Could you advise me about the costs and time-frame to obtain an appraisal? Also, do you represent your clients at the Tribunal court?
  • The terms for the lease on my flat in Great Shelford are 95 years from 15 Jan 1988. Can you provide me a quote to extend the lease if I give you more information please?
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Great Shelford. The lease has just fivety six years outstanding and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the owner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign over the right to me as the purchaser on the day of completion so that I don't have to wait for the two year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is legal but will it be very time consuming to the vendor? Unfortunately the freeholder is absent, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • I am concerned that my niece is being hoodwinked. She put in an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Great Shelford, where the lease is around 74 years but she was informed by the estate agents that the flat owner had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been advised the homeowner was waiting for her to instruct conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Seems unscrupulous, also it will take months to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • We are considering buying a maisonette in Great Shelford which is a leasehold. I am wondering what are the advantages and disadvantages of that - what happens when lease ends, how much it costs to extend it, can the freeholder of the land evict me from my own flat and block me from having a lease extension?
  • My OH and I had entered into buying a studio flat in Great Shelford. I was advised that the lease had been extended (fivety nine years left 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 supposedly has a quote but no money to extend and consequently the seller intends to exchange and use the my deposit to extend the lease. My question is as the lease hasn't been extended is there not a danger that Barclays won't lend on a lease?
  • I am currently in the process of refinancing my three bedroom second floor purpose built flat in Great Shelford and the new lender that I am looking to switch to needs at least 80 years on the leasehold of my property in order for them to take the mortgage forward.
