Questions and Answers: Tywyn Lease Extensions

  • I have shares in the freehold of buildings comprising of seven flats each. Two of the leasehold owners want a lease extension and I'm curious about the the process
  • I'm wanting to make an offer on a house in Tywyn but I'm concerned about it being leasehold. Do you know what title absolute means and is this regarding the lease? Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Leeds Building Society giving us the mortgage now?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very interested but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years balance left so a lease extension is not a concern. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
  • I plan on buying a flat based in Tywyn. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The flat owner’s solicitors 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 Godiva Mortgages Ltd. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
