  • I need to negotiate a lease extension for a flat in Thornton Heath and want to use a local property lawyers. Is there a lawyers that you can recommend?
  • I am going to purchase a flat based in Thornton Heath. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The vendor’s property lawyers 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 Barclays Direct. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • I have a leasehold flat in Thornton Heath. I have built a big extension and have not informed the freeholder. What are my options?
  • I am seeking advice as I am interested in a property that has only a 66 year lease and therefore requires a lease extension. Is it possible for me to call someone to discuss my options please?
  • My husband has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Thornton Heath. House split into three apartments. He has a lease, which has about seventy two years unexpired lease. Does he have to do the lease extension at the same time with the other tenants, or could he extend the lease on his own?
  • I note that your website states the likely fee to extend a lease is £495. Is that the total cost including value added tax and the HMLR fee? The premium has already been negotiated with the freeholder for the lease extension for my studio flat in Thornton Heath
  • My partner and I are in the throws of buying a home (a studio flat inThornton Heath with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had a minimum 83 years residual lease term. We found a place we fell in love with and the estate agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. Yesterday our lawyers advised us the lease only has sixety four years and thus needs a lease extension. Should we run away, or should we negotiate our offer?
  • I have a lease of seventy three years remaining on my flat in Thornton Heath. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
