Recently asked questions relating to Liss Lease Extensions

  • We agreed with the head landlord to a lease extension on our flat in Liss, 14k for an additional 90yrs. What's your legal fee ?
  • I am looking to extend the lease on my 2 bed apartment in Liss which will have seventy three years remaining in September. What fees apply?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 928 years unexpired so a lease extension is not a worry. 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 feedback would be much appreciated.
  • I would like to have my residential flat leasehold extension premium valued. The flat is in Liss, and my lease will reach 59 years this April. Could you advise me about the costs and time-frame to obtain your valuation? Also, do you represent your clients at the Tribunal court?
  • I plan on buying a flat based in Liss. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The owner’s solicitors 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 Platform Home Loans Ltd. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Liss. The lease has only sixety eight years unexpired and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the seller to serve the Initial Notice and then assign this right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting 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 owner? To add to the complexity it’s the case of an absent landlord, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • My apartment in Liss is up for sale and I have a hopefully firm offer. There is eighty one years to run on the lease and I want to extend the lease. What does it cost on average to extend in this location by, say,25 years
  • We are considering buying a ground floor flat in Liss which is a leasehold. I am wondering what are the pros and cons of that - what occurs when lease expires, the cost of a lease extension, can the freeholder of the land evict me from my own flat and prevent me from having a lease extension?
  • Although I do not need a lease extension but I do need a vesting order on a property I want to buy in Liss. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, 1000 year lease from 1854. Its the garden area.
  • We currently own a three bed flat in Liss 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 62 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 20k plus to get a lease extension. Can you offer some advice on this? Should I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
