  • My conveyancers (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'm living at mum and dad but have a two bedroom second floor purpose built maisonette in Sutton Coldfield let out which has a 77 year lease. Mortgage broker said I can remortgage as a buy to let instead of consent to let and release 55-60k which on top of a new mortgage based on my income. Not much about in Sutton Coldfield for me to get my own place. If I sell I will only get 150-160 due to tenant (8 months left on AST) and lease. A lease extension will cost 13k. Not sure sure whether to hold on or sell the flat?
  • Coming up to 2 years that I have owned my one bed flat in Sutton Coldfield. I have 54 yrs outstanding on the lease. I am now looking either to buy a share of freehold or a lease extension. I acquired the property for 320K, 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: What can I expect in terms of legal charges for a lease extension? Are they usually fixed or tend to increase over time (i.e. if the process goes to LVT)?
  • Hopefully an easy question for you, how much does it cost for a lease extension on a residential property in Sutton Coldfield for a three bed flat - section 42 is already in place?
