  • I have got a leasehold flat in the Lindfield area and was wondering whether I could get a lease extension. What are your processes and fees. There are 76 years remaining
  • Hello. I need someone to review my lease extension ahead of it being completed just to make sure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a surrender and regrant with a few minor changes.
  • I am going to purchase a flat located in Lindfield. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The vendor’s lawyers has served the Notice of Claim. 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 National Westminster Bank. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • Is it possible to talk with you about a flat in Lindfield, I am thinking of buying at auction next week. The flat only has a few years unexpired lease and I am curious about what it would cost to get a lease extension and for your services.
  • I will soon view a one bedroom apartment, 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 65 years balance left on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm guessing 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?

  • My solicitors (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
  • Although I do not need a lease extension but I do need a vesting order on a property I want to buy in Lindfield. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, 995 year lease from 1854. Its the garden area.
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Lindfield where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has given a figure of £8,000, but has upped this to £10,000 without too much effort. My valuer has recommended a much higher amount. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I handle the matter myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to face?
  • We have a studio flat in Lindfield with a lease of 71 years left with a value of around £410000 we want to add 125 years to it, how much is that likely to cost?
