She put in an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Kentish Town, where the lease is around 66 years but she was told by the selling agents that the vendor had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been informed the seller was waiting for her to retain solicitors prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds devious, also it will take time to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?

  • I am the freeholder of a property in Kentish Town and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £9,000, but has upped this by £2,000 without too much effort. My valuer has recommended a much higher amount. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I handle the matter myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to incur?
  • We currently own a ground floor flat in Kentish Town and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home.

Do I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
