  • My wife and I are hoping to buy a home (a ground floor flat inShiremoor with share of freehold). Throughout our search, we were always looking at properties that had at least eighty five years unexpired. We came across a place we liked and the selling agent promised us that the lease term was not an issue. Yesterday our property lawyers informed us the lease only has 71 years and thus needs a lease extension. Do we run away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Shiremoor and a leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has provided a figure of £8,000, but has increased this by £2,000 without too much effort. My valuer has come back with £12,520. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I handle the matter myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what charges would I be likely to face?
