  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Penmaenmawr. The lease has just 64 years balance left and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the owner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then transfer over the right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I don't have to wait for the two 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 is achievable but will it be very time consuming to the homeowner? To add to the complexity it’s the case of an absent landlord, so I am not sure how does it work.

I purchased the property for 320K, it is now roughly 445k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my property lawyers about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: Is there a benefit in getting a Penmaenmawr based solicitors or any will do fine?
  • I know that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the landlord seemed reasonable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of not having formal valuation and base the initial offer on previous premiums paid . This would save on double valuation charges. Is this advisable?
