  • I'm intending to make an offer on a house in Kirkwhelpington 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 Skipton Building Society giving us the mortgage now?

  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Kirkwhelpington. The lease has just 63 years unexpired and ground rent is £25. Is it possible for the homeowner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then transfer this right to me as the buyer once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the 2 year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is achievable but will it be very time consuming to the seller? To add to the complexity the freeholder can not be found, so I am not sure how this will play out.

  • If a leaseholder owns a flat with a lease of less than 80 years, they can afford the lease extension by borrowing the funds against the property, and the value of the flat with the new lease will more than cover the cost of the extension, then is there any justification for not doing it?
  • Me and my sister are purchasing a garden flat in Kirkwhelpington which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor commenced extending the lease. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our to do a pre-completion search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new property title number is not known. Is it correct that we have to be patient until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Kirkwhelpington as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. 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?
