Common questions relating to Long Hanborough Lease Extensions

  • 40k agreed with the landlord’s agents, just seeking to find a Long Hanborough lawyers for a lease extension. Our lease has nearly 54 yrsremaining. Can you please help us with this situation ?
  • I am fairly sure that our lawyers has advised us incorrectly concerning a lease extension and I want to know how to go about making a formal complaint
  • I would like to have my residential flat leasehold extension premium valued. The flat is in Long Hanborough, and my lease will reach 65 years this November. Could you advise me about the costs and time-frame to obtain an appraisal? Also, do you represent your clients at the LVT court?
  • I plan on buying a flat based in Long Hanborough. My offer is subject to the lease extension. The current owner’s conveyancing practitioners has given to the freeholder the Section 42 Notice. 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 Lloyds TSB Bank. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • I'm thinking of purchasing a ground floor flat (leasehold) but the freeholder has been absent for about 15yrs. My query is would it be cheaper to try to purchase the freehold or to get a lease extension and apply for right to manage?
  • I am looking into the costs of carrying out a lease extension for my ground floor flat in Long Hanborough, and would like some figures on that.
  • Is it possible to talk with you about a flat in Long Hanborough, I am considering bidding at auction next month. The flat has a short lease and I was wondering about what it would cost to get a lease extension and for your services.
  • I intend to buy a one bed flat in Long Hanborough for asking price of 156k, which has 72 years lease left on it. I appreciate that ideally, the seller would start the process by serving a section 42 notice to start the lease extension process but the seller is refusing to assist. My query is: If the freeholder does not agree to a marriage value (part of lease extension fees) of surveyor, how lengthy and easy is the process of going down the route of Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
  • My and my partner know that others in the same building had already had a lease extension, and the landlord seemed amenable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of avoiding a formal survey and calculate the initial offer on previous premiums paid . This would save on double valuation fees. Would you suggest such a course of action?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Long Hanborough as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
