Frequently asked questions relating to Horbury Lease Extensions

  • My partner has an apartment in Horbury which we are about to put on the market. The leasehold has around fivety seven years unexpired on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested. Can you please assist on how we commence arranging a lease extension? Many thanks.
  • I own a leasehold flat in the Horbury area and was wondering whether I could get a lease extension. What are your processes and charges. Has seventy years balance left
  • I am looking at investing in a second home but it has a lease that expires in fifteen years. Its in Horbury - I wanted to see if with your services this could be extended?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very interested but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 928 years unexpired so a lease extension is not required. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any information would be much appreciated.
  • I would like to have my residential flat leasehold extension premium valued. The flat is in Horbury, and my lease will reach 65 years this August. Could you advise me about the costs and time-frame to obtain an appraisal? Also, do you represent your clients at the LVT court?
  • I'm planning on buying a three bed flat (leasehold) but the freeholder has been absent for just under 15yrs. I wonder whether it will be less expensive to try to buy the freehold or to get a lease extension and apply for RTM?
  • I am about to view a one bedroom flat, although not exactly my perfect property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has sixety four years remaining on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm guessing that the lender will not be interested in extending the lease. My primary concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • My partner and I have a GFF based in Horbury. There is 81 years remaining on the lease and we want to extend the lease. What does it cost on average to get a lease extension by, say,ninety years
  • Coming up to two years that I have owned my garden flat in Horbury. I have 74 years unexpired lease on the lease. I am now looking either to buy a share of freehold or extend my lease. I acquired the property for 320K, it is now roughly 425k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: In terms of surveyors - how do I go about finding one?
  • My wife and I are aware that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the landlord seemed amenable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of not having formal survey and calculate the initial offer on on the prices by others . This would save on double valuation charges. Would you suggest this course of action?
