  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Hessle. The lease has just 55 years outstanding and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the current owner to serve the Initial Notice and then assign over the right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process 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 achievable but will it be very time costly to the homeowner? To add to the complexity the freeholder is absent, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • Me and my husband had entered into a purchase of a garden flat in Hessle. I was advised by the EA that the lease extension had already been completed while on a viewing (68 years outstanding prior to extension). The sales particulars stated "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 vendor apparently has a quote but no finances to extend as a result the seller wants to exchange and use the my deposit for the lease extension. My question is is it not odd that my conveyancing practitioners failed to pick this up far earlier than just before exchange?
  • We have owned a leasehold flat for approximately twenty years. There are 77 years left on the lease.

  • I'm looking at purchasing a flat in Hessle at a price of £210,000 the flat has something like 75 years unexpired on the lease. My offer was subject to a lease extension... .. that was back in August, hoping I'd have completed before Christmas. The seller has just come back saying that they are prepared to knock £3k off if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm not sure if I should take them up on the offer

  • I have a lease of 70 years remaining on my flat in Hessle. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
