Frequently asked questions relating to Weybridge Lease Extensions
I have an interest in the freehold of buildings comprising of seven flats each. 2 of the leasehold owners want a lease extension and I'm curious about the the process
We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very keen on but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 798 years unexpired so a lease extension is not required.

We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any information would be much appreciated.

I am a first time buyer of a leasehold flat in Weybridge. The lease has just seventy years remaining and ground rent is £75.

My property lawyers (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?
