Polegate Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • Hi, I am looking somewhere around or in Polegate 8-10 years lease remaining houses. I dont know if I am on the correct site. Can I find lease remaining houses from here?
  • My wife has a flat in Polegate which we are about to put on the market. The leasehold has just under 66 years residual lease term on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested. I am after more information on how we commence arranging a lease extension? Many thanks.
  • I have been in touch with my freeholder to extend my lease for my flat in Polegate. His has been in contact concerning charges etc. I need a ball park figure for dealing with the legalities to secure a lease extension. The flat currently has a 99 YR lease which started April 1986.
  • My husband and I have a leasehold flat in Polegate with fivety five years unexpired. Ten months ago we were quoted a deal to grant a lease extension for a further fifty years but also increase ground rent from notional to a little more..plus a premium I think of about 14k. We have now decided to go ahead but do we now have to renegotiate?
  • We would like to extend our lease. We will have been in the property for 2 years as of 21st April 2016. It has just under 54 years remaining currently. Hoping to get a lease extension by way of an additional 90 years as quickly and stress free as is reasonably achievable.
  • Me and my OH would like to know the cost of a lease extension valuation for a property based in Polegate. Is this something you can assist us with?
  • I am in need of some help with a lease extension. I live in Dublin but the flat in question is based in Polegate. I would be grateful if you can give me a call when you get a chance to discuss the case.
  • I'm living with my mum and dad but have a two bedroom first floor purpose built flat in Polegate let out which has a 74 year lease. 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 Polegate 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 21k. Should I keep or sell the flat?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Polegate where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided a figure of £8,000, but has upped this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My valuer has recommended a much higher premium. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I deal with this myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what charges would I be likely to face?
  • My son knows that others in the same building previously had a lease extension, and the landlord seemed reasonable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of avoiding a formal survey and base the initial offer on on the premiums paid by others . This would save on double valuation charges. Would you suggest this course of action?
