  • I am looking to purchase a garden flat in Speke with a lease of 75 years but unsure how much I will have to spend to renew so I can put in an offer given to future cost of a lease extension.
  • My neighbours and I are in a building containing four flats in Speke and have been offered to buy the freehold for 8k per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • My solicitors (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?
  • Me and my partner have owned a leasehold flat for around eighteen years. There are seventy years left on the lease. After a year of protracted negotiations through my solicitors and, mainly, surveyor I now have an offer from the freeholder. I now have to make a decision as to whether to accept it or go to a Tribunal and would welcome some independent thoughts.
  • I am hoping to extend the lease on my garden flat in Speke I am looking for a local company to calculate the premium. I have a price from the freeholder. I would like to go forward as soon as possible, but for the right premium and fee.
  • We are purchasing a maisonette in Speke which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the vendor is in the process of dealing with a lease extension. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our conveyancing practitioners to do a pre-completion search on the property title. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our conveyancers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it right that we have to wait pending registration of the new lease?
  • I am planning on remortgaging my garden flat in Speke and the new lender that I am looking to switch to requires a minimum 85 years remaining on the lease in order for them to take the mortgage forward. I have discovered that I currently have around 79 years on the leasehold so looking for some help, guidance, and some quotes to get the wheels in motion for a lease extension
  • I have a lease of 77 years remaining on my flat in Speke. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
