  • I will soon view a two bedroom maisonette, although not exactly my dream property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 70 years balance left on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm guessing that the vendor will not be interested in extending the lease. My main concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • I am concerned that my daughter might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a ground floor flat in Nechells, where the lease is around fivety nine years but she was informed by the estate agents that the flat owner had extended it to 125 years. She has now been informed the current owner was holding off for her to instruct lawyers before commencing with the lease extension. Seems underhand, also it could take a while to sort it all out. What do you think?

  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Nechells and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided a figure of £9,000, but has increased this by £2,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to incur?
  • We currently own a garden flat in Nechells and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 59 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 20k plus to get a lease extension. Can you offer some advice on this? Should I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Nechells as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
