  • My solicitors (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?

Mortgage broker said I can remortgage as a buy to let instead of consent to let and release 55-60k which on top of a new mortgage based on my income. Not much about in Plaistow for me to get my own place. If I sell I will only get 150-160 due to tenant (8 months left on AST) and lease. A lease extension will cost 19k. Not sure sure whether to hold on or sell the flat?
  • My fiance and I are in the throws of buying a flat (a one bed flat based inPlaistow with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at apartments that had a minimum 83 years residual lease term. We came across a place we fell in love with and the selling agent promised us that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our conveyancing practitioners told us the lease only has seventy years and therefore requires a lease extension. Do we walk away, or do we negotiate our offer?

  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Plaistow 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?
