  • My partner and I are acquiring a one bedroom second floor purpose built maisonette in Spondon which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the owner commenced extending the lease. The seller’s lawyer has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our to do a pre-completion search on the property title. The problem 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 lease title number has not been issued. Is it right that we must hold on until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Spondon where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has suggested a figure of £8,000, but has upped this to £10,000 without too much effort. My valuer has recommended a much higher figure. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I handle the matter myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to incur?
  • We currently own a one bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Spondon and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has 74 years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 15k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Do I contact the freeholder first and will they be able to give me a cost?
