  • 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.

Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?

We identified a flat we liked and the estate agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our told us the lease only has 76 years and therefore needs a lease extension. Should we walk away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
