Sherborne Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • I bought a flat in Sherborne with a leasehold unexpired just under 78 years and need a lease extension. Please can you clarify the next stages
  • Hello, I stumbled across your site. I'm looking for prices on what it cost to extend a lease of a 2 bed flat in Sherborne. It's on the market at the moment but has around sixety six years outstanding on the lease

  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very interested but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years unexpired so a lease extension is not an issue. 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 twenty years without the house being ours. Any advice would be much appreciated.
