  • My fiance and I had entered into a purchase of a 2 bed flat in Royton. I was informed that the lease had been lengthened (sixety three years unexpired lease prior to extension). The description on the listing said "sold with a long lease". It turns out at the point of exchange of contracts we find that the lease has not been extended. The seller apparently has a quote but no funds to extend and consequently the vendor wants to exchange and use the my deposit to extend the lease. My question is why has this only just been brought to my attention by my conveyancers?

  • My and my partner know that others in the same block previously had a lease extension, and the freeholder was amenable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of not having formal valuation and base the initial offer on previous prices . This would save on double valuation charges. Would you suggest this course of action?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Royton 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?
