  • I am about to view a one bedroom apartment, although not exactly my ideal property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 68 years balance left on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm assuming that the bank will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My main concern is would it be difficult to sell on without a lease extension?
  • I have my suspicions that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She put in an offer on a maisonette in Leek, where the lease is around 76 years but she was informed by the estate agents that the vendor had extended it to 99 years. She has now been advised the seller was holding off for her to instruct conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Seems unscrupulous, also it will take time to sort it all out. What do you think?

  • My brother and I are acquiring a one bedroom apartment in Leek which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller is in the process of dealing with a lease extension. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our to do OS1 search on the lease. The concern 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 lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we have to hold on until the new lease is registered?
  • We currently own a studio flat in Leek and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 61 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 15k plus to get a lease extension. Can you offer some advice on this? Should I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
