  • 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. 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?

  • I'm looking at buying an apartment in North Newbald valued at £210,000 the flat has something like 74 years left on the lease. My offer was conditional upon the lease being extended... .. that was back in August, expecting I'd have moved in before now. The owner has just come back saying that they are prepared to reduce the price by£7k if they don't have to deal with the lease extension. I'm unsure if I should take them up on the offer
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in North Newbald 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?
  • I was hoping you might be able to tell me the process of how to apply for a lease extension for my maisonette in North Newbald
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my garden flat in North Newbald. 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. Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions?
