  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my three bedroom second floor purpose built maisonette in South Hornchurch. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point 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 tribunal route. Can you recommend a good conveyancers who specialises in lease extensions?
