  • This flat I have in mind requires only ground rent. Long lease so no lease extension required. I have asked the estate agents as to what happens to building insurance and responsibility for communal areas and if one of the two flats which make up the property wants to make alterations.They said they did not know. I cannot see how one could get buildings insurance for the whole building shared with another flat, either downstairs or upstairs.

I acquired the property for 320K, it is now roughly 425k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my lawyers about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: Is there a benefit in getting a Upney based solicitors or any will do fine?
  • We are in the throws of buying a home (a two bedroom second floor purpose built maisonette inUpney with share of freehold).

Yesterday our lawyers told us the lease only has 68 years and thus requires a lease extension. Should we run away, or should we reduce our offer?
