  • Coming up to 2 years that I have owned my garden flat in St Ives. I have 74 yrs left on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I acquired the property for 342K, it is now roughly 450k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my solicitors about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of funding the lease extension - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?
