Northfield Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • I have an interest in the freehold of buildings comprising of 8 flats each. 2 of the leasehold owners want to extend their leases and I'm wondering about the the process
  • I have got a leasehold flat in the Northfield area and was curious if I could get a lease extension. What are your processes and fees. There are sixety one years outstanding
  • I have been in touch with my freeholder for a lease extension for my flat in Northfield. His solicitors has been in contact with fees etc. I need a quote for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The flat currently has a 99 YR lease which started January 1986.
  • I am looking into the costs of carrying out a lease extension for my studio flat in Northfield, and would like some figures on that.
  • I am concerned that my niece might be having the wool pulled over her eyes. She submitted an offer on a garden flat in Northfield, where the lease is around sixety two years but she was advised by the selling agents that the seller had extended it to 125 years. She has now been told the seller was holding off for her to retain conveyancers prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds underhand, also it could take time to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?
  • We are looking to extend our lease having owned the place for two years as of 21st Jan 2016. It has circa 62 years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension by way of an additional 90 years as expeditiously and stress free as possible.
  • I intend to buy a one bed flat in Northfield for asking price of 145k, which has seventy nine 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 query is: If landlord does not agree to a marriage value (part of lease extension fees) of a valuer, how lengthy and difficult is the process of going down the route of Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
  • My conveyancers (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?
  • Hi I am the freeholder interest in a 3 bedroom flat in Northfield. The leaseholder has a sixety two year lease and would like to purchase an additional 90 years. She is offering me £27,000 but I am not sure if this is a correct amount
  • Do you handle lease extensions on land? (a plot of land in Northfield with 82yrs remaining)
