Frequently asked questions relating to Leamington Spa Lease Extensions

  • My OH agreed with the head landlord to a lease extension on our flat in Leamington Spa, 16.5k for another 90yrs. What's your legal fee ?
  • I'm about to make an offer on a house in Leamington Spa 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 The Mortgage Works giving us the mortgage now?
  • I am the owner of a maisonnette and the freehold title. My upstairs neighbours have asked for a lease extension what do I need to do?
  • I bought a maisonette in Leamington Spa. The start date for the lease was in 1991 for 99 years. Now I am wanting for a lease extension. I am in the dark about further expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?
  • What will I need to spend and what is the best way to start the lease extension process? I have approximately 73 years unexpired lease on my lease on a studio flat in Leamington Spa. I have emailed the agent who represent the landlord and they sent me the number for the valuer. I have contacted the surveyor but I am not getting any returned calls.
  • I have my suspicions that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She put in an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Leamington Spa, where the lease is nearly 55 years but she was advised by the selling agents that the current owner had extended it to 125 years. She has now been advised the homeowner was waiting for her to retain lawyers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Seems underhand, also it will take time to sort it all out. What do you think?
  • Regarding a leasehold in Leamington Spa. GFF maisonette. sixety four yrs left. I have negotiated a lease extension price of £14k for 115yrs. Freeholder also insisted on Initial Notice which I think is a tad over the top. Advice required.
  • My husband and I are proceeding with buying a one bedroom apartment in Leamington Spa. I was told that the lease had been extended (seventy seven years left prior to extension). The description on the listing said "sold with a long lease". It transpires at the point of exchange of contracts we find that there has been no lease extension. The vendor supposedly has a quote but no funds to extend as a result the seller wishes to exchange and use the deposit monies to extend the lease. My question is as the lease hasn't been extended is there not a danger that Chelsea Building Society won't lend on a lease?
  • I note that your website states the likely fee to extend a lease is £495. Is that the total cost excluding value added tax and the land registry fee? The premium has already been agreed with the freeholder for the lease extension for my garden flat in Leamington Spa
  • I require an estimate to extend my mother’s lease on a garden flat in Leamington Spa. She recently got a price from the landlord for a lease extension but I am unclear whether it is too high.
