I checked the lease and it has 79 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 20k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Should I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Pontypool 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?
