  • Hi, I am looking somewhere around or in Scunthorpe 8-10 years lease remaining houses. I dont know if I am on the correct site. Can I find lease remaining houses from here?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 798 years residual lease term so a lease extension is not a worry. 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 correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any advice would be much appreciated.

  • We are buying a garden flat in Scunthorpe which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the owner commenced dealing with a lease extension. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our 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 it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it right that we have to wait pending registration of the new lease?
  • I'm seeking some help concerning a lease extension on my flat. The plan is to do this in nine months time as we must move then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the LVT route. Do I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Scunthorpe 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?
