Maidenbower Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • 40k agreed with the landlord’s agents, just seeking to find a Maidenbower conveyancers for a lease extension. Our lease has roughly sixety five yrsunexpired lease. Can you please help us with this situation ?
  • I am in need of a rough estimate of what a lease extension will cost for a flat I intend to purchase. It has 60 years outstanding.
  • I own a leasehold flat in Maidenbower. I have built a big extension and have not informed the freeholder. What should I do?
  • I am looking to buy a one bed flat in Maidenbower for asking price of 145k, which has 73 years lease left on it. Seller doesn't want to extend the lease for even if I were to pay the money to the seller. My question 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 conveyancing practitioners (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?
  • We have owned a leasehold flat for around eighteen years. There are 67 years unexpired lease on the lease. Following a year of protracted negotiations through my lawyers and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the freeholder. I am at a decision point on whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would appreciate some independent thoughts.
  • Me and my wife are in the throws of buying a flat (a studio flat inMaidenbower with share of freehold). Throughout our search, we were always looking at properties that had a minimum ninety years remaining. We identified a place we liked and the estate agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our conveyancing practitioners advised us the lease only has seventy two years and thus needs a lease extension. Should we walk away, or do we negotiate our offer?
  • I am the registered freeholder to two flats. Someone has the lease on the ground flat in Maidenbower. I live in the upper flat. I was looking at the land registry documents today when I noticed that my flat has a lease on it. There is 70 years outstanding. Is it possible to carry out a lease extension without instructing a conveyancing practitioners?
  • We have a studio flat in Maidenbower with a lease of seventy one years left with a value of around £410000 we want to add 90 years to it, how much is that likely to cost?
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my 2 bed flat in Maidenbower. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
