Frequently asked questions relating to South Ruislip Lease Extensions

  • Hello, I just randomly found this website. I'm seeking prices on what it cost to extend a lease of a ground floor flat in South Ruislip. It's up for sale at the moment but has around 76 years left on the lease
  • I want to acquire a leasehold property and lease extension. The flat owner has been there over two years and will assign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?
  • This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs. I do need to clarify things like this before I undertake all the expenses involved in purchasing a property I feel. Do freeholders actually supply their own insurance?
  • I have a leasehold flat in South Ruislip. I have built a big extension and have not informed my freeholder. What are my options?

  • I'm living with my mum and dad but have a ground floor flat in South Ruislip let out which has a seventy six year lease. Mortgage broker said I can remortgage as a buy to let instead of consent to let and release 55-60k which on top of a new mortgage based on my income. Not much about in South Ruislip for me to get my own place. If I sell I will only get 150-160 due to tenant (8 months left on AST) and lease. A lease extension will cost 19k. Should I keep or sell the flat?
  • Coming up to 2 years that I have owned my studio flat in South Ruislip. I have 54 yrs remaining on the lease. I am now wanting to buy a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 342K, it is now roughly 445k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my property lawyers about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: What can I expect in terms of legal charges for a lease extension? Are they usually fixed or tend to increase over time (i.e. if the process goes to LVT)?
  • Although I do not need a lease extension but I do require a vesting order on a property I want to buy in South Ruislip. The house is freehold but the garden is officially leasehold, Nine hundred and ninety nine year lease from 1889. Its the rear garden.
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my 2 bed flat in South Ruislip. 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?
