Top Ten Questions relating to Horsforth Lease Extensions

  • Hi, I stumbled upon this website. I'm looking for prices on what it cost to extend a lease of a one bedroom ground floor purpose built flat located in Horsforth. It's on the market at the moment but has just over 67 years of unexpired leasehold
  • I have an interest in the freehold of 2 blocks of flats comprising of six flats each. 2 of the leasehold owners want to extend their leases and I'm wondering about the the process
  • I'm wanting to make an offer on a house in Horsforth but I'm a little worried about it being leasehold. Do you know what title absolute means and is this regarding the lease? Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Bank of Scotland giving us the mortgage now?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very interested but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years residual lease term so a lease extension is not an issue. 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 true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for twenty years without owning the property. Any advice would be much appreciated.
  • We are in a block consisting of five flats in Horsforth and have been offered to buy the freehold for 8k per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • Think I may have made an error, I am searching for a property lawyers in Horsforth who has Leasehold Tribunal expertise in relation to lease extensions. Are you able to assist me with?
  • We own a leasehold with a landlord who has failed to give us a counter-notice for a lease extension for our flat in Horsforth and are therefore considering the option of a vesting order. Is this something you can help us with?
  • Is it possible to talk with you about a flat in Horsforth, I am thinking of buying at auction next week. The flat only has a few years left and I wanted to inquire about what it would cost to get a lease extension and for your services.
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Horsforth where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided a figure of £8,000, but has increased this to £10,000 without too much effort. My valuer has put forward a much higher figure. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
  • I'm looking for some assistance concerning extending the lease on my apartment. The intention is to do this in six months time as we have to move 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 lawyers with expertise in lease extensions. Preferably based in Horsforth?
