Common questions relating to Linton Lease Extensions

  • I need to extend my current lease can you help me with that? My investigation with the Land Registry reveal that it has 61 years remaining
  • I'm intending to make an offer on a house in Linton 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 Alliance & Leicester giving us the mortgage now?
  • We hope to sell our garden flat in Linton but we may need to extend the lease, or at least cover the costs of our buyers. Can you suggest someone to assist?
  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Linton. The lease has only 59 years unexpired and ground rent is £95. Is it possible for the homeowner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign this right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I don't have to wait for the two 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 may be possible but will it be very time consuming to the flat owner? Unfortunately it’s the case of an missing landlord, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • What will it cost me and what is the best way to get a lease extension started? I have around seventy seven years left on my lease on a three bed flat in Linton. I have emailed the managing agents who represent the freeholder and they gave me the number of the valuer. I have contacted the valuer but I am not receiving any returned calls.
  • My wife and I have a residential flat in Linton with 61 years to run. Last year we were quoted a deal to receive a lease extension for another thirty years but also increase ground rent from notional to a little more..plus a premium I think of approximately 14k. We have now decided to move forward but do we now have to start the negotiations again?
  • I own the freehold of a couple of flats. Someone has the lease on the ground flat in Linton. I occupy in the upper flat. I was reviewing the title deeds yesterday when I noticed that my flat has a lease on it. There is sixety two years remaining. If I want a lease extension then would I just be paying for the charges?
  • I'm looking for some assistance with regard to a lease extension on my flat. I'll be looking to do this in six months time as we need to move then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the LVT route. Do I look to complete the lease extension now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
  • We know that others in the same building previously had a lease extension, and the landlord was amenable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of not having formal survey and base the initial offer on previous premiums paid . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you recommend this course of action?
