  • I am concerned that my niece might be having the wool pulled over her eyes. She submitted an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Locks Heath, where the lease is just under seventy nine years but she was advised by the estate agents that the current owner had extended it to 125 years. Only now has she been told the homeowner was holding off for her to appoint solicitors before commencing with the lease extension. Seems odd to me, also it may take time to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?

We have now decided to proceed but do we now have to start the negotiations again?

  • Just been over two years that I have owned my studio flat in Locks Heath. I have 77 yrs remaining on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 342K, it is now roughly 450k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my solicitors about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: What can I expect in terms of surveyors charges for a lease extension? Are they usually fixed or tend to increase over time (i.e. if the process drags to the tribunal etc)?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Locks Heath and a leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has provided a figure of £8,000, but has increased this to £10,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
