  • I'm looking for an apartment to purchase in Petworth and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold arrangement. I've found a one bedroom ground floor purpose built maisonette I like with a 90 years lease. I've read that I can apply for a lease extension after 2 years, but:- Is this a given?
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Petworth. The lease has only 56 years balance left and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the owner to serve the Initial Notice and then transfer over the right to me as the purchaser on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting 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 flat owner? To add to the complexity it’s the case of an missing freeholder, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • 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 hoping for some advice concerning extending the lease on my maisonette. The intention is to do this in six months time as we need to move 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 with expertise in lease extensions. Preferably someone in Petworth area?
  • I have a lease of 78 years remaining on my flat in Petworth. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
