  • My property 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?
  • I'm intent on purchasing a flat in Lower Earley valued at £256,000 the flat has approximately 69 years remaining on the lease. My offer was subject to the lease being extended... .. that was back in November, hoping I'd be in by now. The seller has just informed the agent they are willing to knock £4k off if I deal with the lease extension myself. I'm not sure if I should take them up on the offer
  • My wife and I are aware that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the freeholder seemed reasonable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of avoiding a formal valuation and base the initial offer on previous prices . This would save on double valuation charges. Is this advisable?
  • I have a lease of 58 years remaining on my flat in Lower Earley. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
