  • I plan on buying a flat based in Mansfield Woodhouse. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The vendor’s lawyers has served the Notice of Claim. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • We purchased a leasehold with a freeholder who has failed to give us a counter-notice for a lease extension for our flat in Mansfield Woodhouse and are therefore deliberating the option of a vesting order. Is this something you can help us with?
