  • I am the owner of a maisonnette together with the freehold. The owners of the downstairs flat have asked to extend the lease what do I need to do?
  • I plan on buying a flat based in Victoria Docks. The offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The flat owner’s has served 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 Santander. Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?
  • I have my suspicions that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She submitted an offer on a maisonette in Victoria Docks, where the lease is about 66 years but she was advised by the estate agents that the seller had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been advised the vendor was holding off for her to retain conveyancers prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds odd to me, also it could take months to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • My leasehold flat in Victoria Docks is up for sale and I have a hopefully firm offer. There is 82 years left on the lease and I want to extend the lease. What does it cost on average to extend in this area by, say,35 years
  • Me and my partner are buying a three bedroom first floor purpose built maisonette in Victoria Docks which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the seller is in the process of extending the lease. The owner has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the conveyancing process is for our to do a pre-completion search on the lease. The problem here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number is not known. Is it right that we must wait until the lease extension has actually been registered before completing.?
  • We are hoping to acquire a property (a garden flat located inVictoria Docks with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had at least 84 years outstanding. We found a flat we liked and the estate agent promised us that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. This morning our advised us the lease only has 59 years and therefore needs a lease extension. Should we walk away, or should we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
  • My and my husband know that others in the same building had already had a lease extension, and the freeholder seemed reasonable. It therefore appears worth taking risk of not having formal survey and base the initial offer on previous premiums paid . This would save on double valuation charges. Is this advisable?
