  • Hello. I need a conveyancers to review my lease extension ahead of it being formalised just to ensure there's nothing that I haven't seen - it's just a surrender and regrant with a few small changes.
  • I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Sherwood. The lease has only 75 years left and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the owner to serve the Section 42 Notice and then assign over the right to me as the buyer once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the two year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is achievable but will it be very time consuming to the owner? To add to the complexity the landlord is absent, so I am not sure how this will play out.
  • Re a property in Sherwood. GFF maisonette. 73 yrs unexpired. I have negotiated a lease extension price of £14k for 125yrs. Freeholder also requested Section 42 Notice which I think is a tad over the top. Advice required.

  • My brother and I are considering buying a three bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Sherwood which is a leasehold. I am enquiring as to the pros and cons of that - what occurs when lease ends, the cost of a lease extension, can the freeholder of the property evict me from my own flat and block me from having a lease extension?
  • Offer accepted on a a garden flat in Sherwood, were told numerous times by the EA that the lease had over 100 years, we have just had our mortgage offer come through which states the lease as eighty years.We are about to exchange contracts in a couple of days. My question is Have the estate agents breached any law by misrepresenting the position concerning the lease term?
  • My property lawyers (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
