  • I am considering whether to purchase the freehold or a lease extension of my property in Longton and have been in touch with the freeholder, have had quote for around £2500 to extend the lease.

  • I am concerned that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Longton, where the lease is roughly 74 years but she was told by the estate agents that the seller had extended it to 99 years. She has now been informed the seller was holding off for her to appoint lawyers prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds devious, also it will take a while to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?

  • We are considering purchasing a garden flat in Longton 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 property evict me from my own flat and block me from extending the lease?
  • My lawyers (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?
