Questions and Answers: Uxbridge Lease Extensions

  • I agreed with the head landlord for a lease extension on our flat in Uxbridge, 12k for another 90yrs. How long will it take ?

  • We are selling our 2 bed flat in Uxbridge but we may require a lease extension, or possibly cover the costs of our buyers. Can you suggest someone to help us?
  • My co-lessees and I are in a building comprising three flats in Uxbridge and have been offered to buy the freehold for £6000 per flat rather than go for lease extensions. We are all in agreement that we want to do this but how do we get started and what is the likely cost?
  • We bought a leasehold with a freeholder who has failed to respond by way of a counter-notice for a lease extension for our flat in Uxbridge and looking to do a vesting order. Is this something you can do for us?
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Uxbridge. The lease has just fivety eight years left and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the homeowner to serve the Notice of Claim and then assign this right to me as the purchaser on the day of completion so that I can avoid waiting for the two 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 consuming to the current owner? To add to the complexity the landlord is absent, so I am not sure how does it work.
  • I have my suspicions that my daughter might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a maisonette in Uxbridge, where the lease is slightly more 65 years but she was advised by the estate agents that the seller had extended it to 99 years. She has now been told the homeowner was waiting for her to appoint solicitors ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds unscrupulous, also it will take time to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?

  • I intend to buy a one bed flat in Uxbridge for asking price of 125k, which has 74 years lease left on it. Seller doesn't want to extend the lease for even if I were to pay the money to the seller. My query is: If the freeholder does not agree to a marriage value (part of lease extension fees) of a valuer, how lengthy and difficult is the process of going down the route of Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
  • We have a maisonette in Uxbridge with a lease of 56 years left with a value of around £370000 we want to add 125 years to it, how much is that likely to cost?
