  • Just been over two years that I have been in my maisonette in Machen. I have sixety nine yrs left on the lease. I am now wanting to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 320K, it is now roughly 425k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my conveyancing practitioners about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of financing - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?
