This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs. I do need to clarify things like this before I undertake all the expenses involved in purchasing a property I feel. Do freeholders actually supply their own insurance?

My brother and I had entered into buying a one bedroom apartment in Maida Vale. I was advised by the EA that the lease extension had already been completed while on a viewing (sixety two years remaining prior to extension). The description on the listing stated "sold with a long lease". It turns out as we are about to exchange of contracts we find that the lease has not been extended. The seller apparently has a quote but no funds to extend as a result the current owner wants to exchange and use the my deposit for the lease extension. My question is how is possible that the estate agent got it so wrong?

Me and my wife are buying a one bedroom ground floor purpose built maisonette in Maida Vale which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller is in the process of extending the lease. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our to do a "priority search" on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we have to wait until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?

My and my husband are worried about obtaining a lease extension from a difficult freeholder.

Can you help?
