Common questions relating to Lampton Lease Extensions

  • 20,000 agreed with the landlord’s agents, just seeking to find a Lampton for a lease extension. Our lease has roughly 65 yrsoutstanding. How long will this take ?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 899 years outstanding so a lease extension is not required. 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 25 years without the house being ours. Any information would be much appreciated.
  • I bought a garden flat based in Lampton with a leasehold unexpired of sixety one years. I am curious about how much I will need to spend to extend my lease
  • I plan on buying a flat in Lampton. My offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The homeowner’s has given to the freeholder the Section 42 Notice. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender The Royal Bank of Scotland. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Lampton. The lease has only 78 years unexpired and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Notice of Claim and then transfer this right to me as the purchaser on the day of completion so that I don't have to wait for the two year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this may be possible but will it be very time costly to the flat owner? Unfortunately it’s the case of an absent landlord, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • I am the freeholder of a 1930’s property split into two flats. I live in the upper flat and my neighbour in the lower flat. My neighbour has approached me for a lease extension from the current seventy six years. What are my next steps?
  • I am in need of some help with a lease extension. I live in Glasgow but the property in question is based in Lampton. I would be grateful if you can give me a call when you get a chance to discuss the case.
  • I am the registered freeholder to two flats. Someone has the lease on the lower flat in Lampton. I reside in the upper flat. I was looking at the land registry documents last night when I noticed that my flat has a lease on it. There is 66 years residual lease term. If I want to do a lease extension then would I simply be paying for the fees?
