  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Hurstpierpoint and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has provided a figure of £8,000, but has upped this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My valuer has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT.

  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Hurstpierpoint as it is coming up to the 80 year mark.

I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
