  • I will soon view a two bedroom flat, although not exactly my dream property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present circumstances. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has sixety seven years remaining on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm guessing that the lender will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My primary concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?

  • We are purchasing a three bed flat in Streatham Vale which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was on the short side so the seller is in the process of dealing with a lease extension. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. An essential part of the house buying process is for our conveyancers to do a "priority search" on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our solicitors it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it correct that we must be patient until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
  • We are hoping to purchase a flat (a maisonette located inStreatham Vale with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had at least eighty five years residual lease term. We found a apartment we fell in love with and the selling agent assured that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. Yesterday our conveyancers advised us the lease only has 64 years and thus requires a lease extension. Do we run away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
  • We wanted an estimate on the cost of a lease extension and a few more questions answered regarding a lease extension for my 2 bed flat in Streatham Vale
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my ground floor flat in Streatham Vale. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point 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 tribunal route. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
