  • 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 have been in touch with my freeholder to extend my lease for my flat in Guiseley. His has been in contact with costs etc. I need a quote for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The flat currently has a 99 YR lease which started March 199.
  • I have my suspicions that my daughter might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Guiseley, where the lease is around 76 years but she was advised by the estate agents that the flat owner had extended it to 125 years. She has now been informed the homeowner was holding off for her to appoint solicitors prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds devious, also it could take months to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?
  • Regarding a residence in Guiseley. upper maisonette. seventy six yrs remaining. I have negotiated a lease extension price of £20k for 115yrs. Landlord also requested Initial Notice which I think is a tad over the top. Advice required.
  • My (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
  • I am in need of some help with a lease extension. I live in Glasgow but the property in question is based in Guiseley. I would be grateful if you can give me a call when you get a chance to discuss the case.
  • We currently own a studio flat in Guiseley and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 76 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 13k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Do I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
