Frequently asked questions relating to Stoke Gifford Lease Extensions
I bought a three bedroom first floor purpose built maisonette located in Stoke Gifford with a leasehold unexpired of 59 years. I am wondering about how much I will need to spend to extend my leasehold
I plan on buying a flat based in Stoke Gifford. My offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The current owner’s conveyancers has given to the freeholder the Section 42 Notice. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Bank of Scotland. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
In 2010 I purchased a leasehold apartment in Stoke Gifford. I have built a huge extension and have not informed my leaseholder. What are my options?
I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Stoke Gifford. The lease has only 65 years remaining and ground rent is £95. Is it possible for the homeowner to serve the Notice of Claim and then assign this right to me as the buyer on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting for the two year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this is legal but will it be very time costly to the vendor? Unfortunately it’s the case of an missing freeholder, so I am not sure how does it work.

My conveyancing practitioners (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?
I am the freeholder of a Edwardian property split into two apartments. I live in the top floor flat and my neighbour in the lower flat. My neighbour has approached me for a lease extension from the current 60 years. What are my next steps?
My OH and I are acquiring a garden flat in Stoke Gifford which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the vendor is in the process of dealing with a lease extension. The seller has submitted the lease extension paperwork which will result in the registration of a new lease at the land registry. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our conveyancing practitioners to do OS1 search on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our conveyancing practitioners it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it correct that we must wait until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
My wife and I are aware that others in the same building previously had a lease extension, and the landlord seemed reasonable. Therefore is seems worth taking risk of not having formal valuation and base the initial offer on previous prices . This would save on double valuation charges. Is this advisable?
