My (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.

Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?

Me and my partner are acquiring a one bedroom apartment in Sittingbourne which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the owner commenced dealing with a lease extension.

An essential part of the house buying 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 property title number has not been issued. Is it correct that we must hold on until the new lease is registered?

Should I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
