Examples of recent questions relating to Lease Extensions in Ravenglass

  • I plan on buying a flat in Ravenglass. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The current owner’s solicitors has given to the freeholder the Notice of Claim. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Britannia. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • We are in a block comprising three flats in Ravenglass and have been offered to buy the freehold for £6000 per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?

  • I am the owner of a purpose-built flat located in a small development in Ravenglass. The leasehold interest in the apartment on a ninety five year lease started on 2nd January 1969 with a set yearly rent of 35. I wish to obtain a lease extension. Can I call someone to discuss my options please?
  • We are buying a one bedroom apartment in Ravenglass which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller commenced dealing with a lease extension. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the conveyancing process is for our property lawyers to do a "priority search" on the property title. The concern 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 has not been issued. Is it correct that we have to wait until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
  • Are you able to provide an estimate to extend my aunt’s lease on a three bedroom first floor purpose built flat in Ravenglass. She already has a figure from the landlord for a lease extension but I am far from certain if it is too expensive.
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Ravenglass 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?
