  • Just been over two years that I have owned my ground floor flat in Swinton. I have seventy six yrs unexpired lease on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 342K, it is now roughly 425k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my conveyancing practitioners about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of financing - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?

  • My brother and I are hoping to buy a property (a one bed flat located inSwinton with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at properties that had at least 83 years left. We found a apartment we fell in love with and the selling agent promised us that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. This morning our conveyancers advised us the lease only has 66 years and therefore needs a lease extension. Do we run away, or do we reduce our offer?
