  • I am thinking about whether to purchase the freehold or a lease extension of my property in Kingsley and have been in touch with the freeholder, have had quote for around £2500 to extend the lease. I will be doing a remortgage with Bank of Ireland to free up equity. My adviser dealing with the remortgage suggested I get two quotes : one for the lease extension and one for the freehold purchase .The lease commenced in 1991 and since then the ground rent has been raised from £25.00 per annum to £300 per year.
  • 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 circumstances. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 67 years residual lease term on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm guessing that the lender will not be interested in extending the lease. My primary concern is would it be difficult to sell on without a lease extension?

  • Just been over two years that I have been in my garden flat in Kingsley. I have fivety nine years outstanding on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I acquired the property for 320K, it is now roughly 450k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my conveyancing practitioners about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of funding the lease extension - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?
