Hengoed Lease Extensions Example Support Desk Enquiries

  • I’m looking for lease extension for our garden flat based in Hengoed and we are confused by the communication that we received from our landlord company. How long will it take?
  • I am the registered owner of a flat in Hengoed with a leasehold unexpired just over sixety two years and need to extend it. Please can you clarify the next stages
  • I have my suspicions that my niece might be having the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a studio flat in Hengoed, where the lease is slightly more 73 years but she was told by the estate agents that the flat owner had extended it to 125 years. She has now been advised the owner was holding off for her to retain lawyers prior to commencing with the lease extension. Seems underhand, also it will take a while to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?
  • 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 to buy a one bed flat in Hengoed for asking price of 156k, which has seventy eight years lease left on it. Seller doesn't want to extend the lease for even if I were to pay the money to the seller. My query is: If landlord does not agree to a marriage value (part of lease extension fees) of a valuer, how lengthy and difficult is the process of going down the route of Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
  • 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?
  • My partner and I are acquiring a ground floor flat in Hengoed which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller is in the process of extending the lease. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our to do a pre-completion search on the property title. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we must wait until the new lease is registered?
  • I own the freehold to two flats. Someone has the lease on the lower flat in Hengoed. I live in the top flat. I was reviewing the land registry documents yesterday when I noticed that my flat is leasehold. There is 60 years left on the lease. If I want to do a lease extension then would I simply be paying for the charges?
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Hengoed and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided a figure of £9,000, but has upped this to £10,000 without too much effort. My valuer has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what charges would I be likely to face?
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my two bedroom second floor purpose built flat in Hengoed. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point 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 tribunal route. Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions?
