Ravenscourt Park Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • Hello, I stumbled across this site. I'm looking for prices on what it cost to extend a lease of a one bedroom apartment in Ravenscourt Park. It's up for sale at the moment but has about 55 years left on the lease
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years residual lease term so a lease extension is not required. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without owning the property. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

  • I plan on buying a flat in Ravenscourt Park. The offer is subject to the lease extension. The current owner’s has given to the freeholder the Section 42 Notice. 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.
