  • Coming up to two years that I have been in my one bedroom first floor purpose built maisonette in Wellington. I have 79 yrs outstanding on the lease. I am now wanting to buy a share of freehold or a lease extension. I purchased the property for 350K, it is now roughly 445k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my about the process, he answered most of my questions but just have one left: I realize this will cost me 10k+, it is not easy to drop the cash (even if I may have savings) to cover it. What do most people do in terms of funding the lease extension - do they add it to their existing mortgage or pay it out in cash?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Wellington as it is coming up to the 80 year mark.

I am now told that I have to continue paying ground rent. I thought the major cost of a lease extension was to compensate the freeholder as they wouldn't be collecting ground rent anymore?
