Hither Green Lease Extensions Example Support Desk Enquiries

  • I am looking for a rough estimate of what a lease extension will cost for a flat I would like to purchase. It has sixety one years outstanding.
  • 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?

  • What will I need to spend and what is the best way to get a lease extension started? I have roughly 75 years remaining on my lease on a garden flat in Hither Green.
