Common questions relating to Westbourne Lease Extensions

  • I’ve just completed on a garden flat based inWestbourne and I'm thinking about extending the lease as soon as I can e.g. after two years
  • I’m just looking for a 2 bed flat to buy in the Westbourne area and was after more information on what the likely fees would be for a lease extension? It has 56 years outstanding...
  • Are you able to advise on how much it would expense and the best way to get a lease extension started? I have roughly 79 years remaining and I own a studio flat in Westbourne.
  • I am a landlord of a block of flats in Westbourne, and the lessees are in the process of being granted lease extensions. I anticipate receiving funds next month. Are there any tax implications, the property is in joint names with my partner ?
  • Just been over two years that I have owned my ground floor flat in Westbourne. I have seventy two yrs remaining on the lease. I am now wanting to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 320K, it is now roughly 450k. 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: What can I expect in terms of surveyors charges for a lease extension? Are they usually fixed or tend to increase over time (i.e. if the process goes to the tribunal etc)?
  • Hopefully an easy question for you, how much are the legal fees for a lease extension on a residential property in Westbourne for a one bed flat - sec 42 is already served?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Westbourne where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has given a figure of £8,000, but has upped this to £10,000 at the drop of a hat. My surveyor has put forward a much higher premium. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I handle the matter myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to incur?
  • We are worried about seeking a lease extension from an objectionable freeholder. Notwithstanding that the correct procedures were followed under the 1993 Act, the freeholder still attempted to charge ground rent of £200 increasing by 100% every twenty five years of the new lease. Can you assist?
  • We wanted an estimate on the cost of a lease extension and a few more questions answered regarding a lease extension for my one bedroom apartment in Westbourne
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my garden flat in Westbourne. 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 property lawyers who specialises in lease extensions?
