  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Tiptree. The lease has only 54 years outstanding and ground rent is £50. Is it possible for the flat owner to serve the Initial Notice and then assign over the right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the 2 year qualifying period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this may be possible but will it be very time costly to the seller? Unfortunately the landlord can not be found, so I am not sure how this will play out.

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.
