Victoria Dock Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • My co-lessees and I are in a block of four flats in Victoria Dock and have been offered to buy the freehold for 5k 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?
  • I would like to know how much it would charges and the best way to start the lease extension process? I have nearon 71 years left and I own a garden flat in Victoria Dock.
  • I am a landlord of a block of flats in Victoria Dock, and the leaseholders are in the process of being issued lease extensions. I should hopefully get funds next month. As I am not on self assessment do I write to HMRC ?
  • Regarding a property in Victoria Dock. GFF maisonette. fivety nine yrs left. I have an agreed lease extension to £12,000 for 115yrs. Freeholder also requested Notice of Claim which I think is a bit over the top. Can you assist.
  • My (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
  • My dad has a share of freehold, with two other leaseholders in a building in Victoria Dock. House converted into three flats. He has a lease, which has nearon sixety five years remaining. 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?
  • Me and my fiance have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our maisonette in Victoria Dock. We have a 60 year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has provided us with a premium amount that she is happy with to accept for the extension of the lease, which we are happy with as well and wish to proceed. All we need now is a to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on our behalf.
  • I own the freehold to two flats. Someone has the lease on the ground flat in Victoria Dock. I reside in the top flat. I was reviewing the title deeds yesterday when I noticed that my flat is leasehold. There is seventy seven years left on the lease. If I want a lease extension then would I just be paying for the costs?
  • Do you handle lease extensions on land? (a plot of land in Victoria Dock with 82yrs remaining)
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my one bedroom apartment in Victoria Dock. I'll be looking to do this sometime next year as we need to move at some point then. Unfortunately the current lease is now very short and therefore I'm guessing it'll be expensive to extend. I'm also thinking that I'll probably have to go down the tribunal route. Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions?
