  • We are hoping to purchase a flat (a studio flat located inStreetly with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had at least eighty five years left on the lease. We found a place we fell in love with and the selling agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. Today our conveyancers advised us the lease only has 68 years and therefore requires a lease extension. Do we walk away, or do we reduce our offer?
  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Streetly and a leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her so called valuation expert has given a figure of £9,000, but has upped this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I handle the matter myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what fee would I be likely to face?
