  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Mitcham Junction. The lease has only sixety eight years residual lease term and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the owner to serve the Initial Notice and then transfer over the right to me as the buyer once I complete the buying process so that I don't have to wait for the 2 year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this may be possible but will it be very time consuming to the owner? Unfortunately the freeholder can not be found, so I am not sure how this will play out.

She has now been told the seller was holding off for her to retain lawyers prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds odd to me, also it will take time to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • My (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.

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?
