Stafford Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • Hi, I just randomly found this site. I'm looking for prices on what it cost to extend a lease of a garden flat in Stafford. It's up for sale at the moment but has circa 75 years of unexpired leasehold
  • I have shares in the freehold of buildings comprising of 8 flats each. 2 of the leasehold owners want to extend their leases and I'm wondering about the the process
  • Do you only do lease extensions in Stafford? I own a flat in Abbey Wood with 90 years remaining, I am looking for a quote from a conveyancing practitioners.
  • I would like to have my residential flat leasehold extension premium valued. The flat is in Stafford, and my lease will reach seventy four years this June. Could you advise me about the costs and time-frame to obtain an appraisal? Also, do you represent your clients at the Tribunal court?
  • Possibly made a mistake, I am searching for a conveyancers in Stafford who has Leasehold Tribunal expertise when it comes to lease extensions. Is this something you can assist me with?
  • Regarding a leasehold in Stafford. lower maisonette. sixety seven yrs unexpired. I have an agreed lease extension to £14k for 125yrs. Landlord also insisted on Initial Notice which I think is a bit over the top. Advice required.
  • I intend to buy a one bed flat in Stafford for asking price of 145k, which has sixety eight years lease left on it. I appreciate that ideally, the seller would start the process by serving a section 42 notice to start the lease extension process but the seller is refusing to assist. My question is: If landlord does not agree to a marriage value (part of lease extension fees) of surveyor, how lengthy and difficult is the process of going down the route of Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
  • It says on your website the likely fee for dealing with a lease extension is £495. Is that the total cost including vat and the land registry fee? The premium has already been agreed with the freeholder for the lease extension for my one bedroom second floor purpose built maisonette in Stafford
  • I'm seeking some advice concerning extending the lease on my apartment. The intention is to do this next June as we must move 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 LVT route. Do I look to complete the lease extension now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
  • We know that others in the same building had already had a lease extension, and the freeholder was amenable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of avoiding a formal survey and calculate the initial offer on on the prices by others . This would save on double valuation charges. Would you recommend such a course of action?
