Plymouth Lease Extensions Example Support Desk Enquiries

  • I am looking for a lawyers in Plymouth and they need to be on the Nottingham Building Society approved conveyancers panel as we need a lease extension and refinance simultaneously. Are you able to recommend any please ?
  • I'm looking for an apartment to buy in Plymouth and I'm not really familiar with the leasehold arrangement. I've identified a garden flat I like with a 87 years lease. I've read that I can get a lease extension after a couple of years, but:- Should I anticipate any issue with the mortgage?
  • I will soon view a two bedroom flat, although not exactly my ideal property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has sixety five years left on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm guessing that the bank will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My primary concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • I have my suspicions that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a one bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Plymouth, where the lease is nearly fivety four years but she was advised by the selling agents that the flat owner had extended it to 125 years. She has now been told the seller was waiting for her to appoint conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Seems underhand, also it could take a while to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • Me and my wife are considering purchasing a garden flat in Plymouth which is a leasehold. I am wondering what are the advantages and disadvantages of that - what happens when lease ends, how much it costs to extend it, can the freeholder of the property evict me from my own flat and block me from having a lease extension?
  • My father has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Plymouth. House divided into three apartments. He has a lease, which has just under 72 years outstanding. Does he have to do the lease extension at the same time with the other tenants, or could he extend the lease on his own?
  • Although I do not need a lease extension but I do need a vesting order on a property I want to acquire in Plymouth. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, 1000 year lease from 1854. Its the garden area.
  • My OH and I are purchasing a one bedroom apartment in Plymouth which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the seller is in the process of extending the lease. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the house buying process is for our lawyers to do a pre-completion search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our solicitors it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we must be patient until the new lease is registered?
  • I am the registered freeholder to two flats. Someone has the lease on the garden flat in Plymouth. I live in the upper flat. I was looking at the land registry documents yesterday when I noticed that my flat has a lease on it. There is fivety seven years outstanding. If I want a lease extension then would I just be paying for the conveyancers costs?
  • My mother is worried about getting a lease extension from a difficult freeholder. Regardless of the fact that the legal procedures were adhered to under the appropriate legislation, the landlord still tried to get ground rent of £200 doubling every twenty years of the new lease. Can you assist?
