  • Just been over 2 years that I have been in my one bedroom apartment in Westgate on Sea. I have 72 yrs unexpired lease on the lease. I am now looking either to purchase a share of freehold or extend my lease. I purchased the property for 350K, it is now roughly 425k. I understand that 90 years is the period most people extend. I spoke to my property lawyers 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 the registered freeholder of a couple of flats. Someone has the lease on the garden flat in Westgate on Sea. I reside in the top flat.

If I want a lease extension then would I just be paying for the property lawyers fees?
  • I am currently negotiating a lease extension for my flat in Westgate on Sea as it is coming up to the 80 year mark. As I understood it, if you extend your lease by the 90 years available, you pay a premium (£thousands) but the ground rent is reduced to a peppercorn. 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?
  • I have a lease of seventy four years remaining on my flat in Westgate on Sea. We are looking for a lease extension, so we contacted our freehold company and they came back with a quote that was double the amount and half the extension time that the lease extension calculator provided. Is there anyway, without racking up a huge legal bill, we can ask the freehold company to provide their computation of the amount and how they derived to it?
