Weymouth Lease Extensions: Q and A’s

  • I want to purchase a leasehold property and extend the lease. The flat owner has been there for four years and will assign the notice. He will let me have the notice on exchange and then I will serve it in the landlord. Is this OK ?
  • I bought a studio flat in Weymouth. The lease started in 1991 for 99 years. Now I am wanting for a lease extension. I am uncertain about additional expenses, could you tell me please how much I should expect to spend on this?
  • Think I may have made a mistake, I am searching for a property lawyers in Weymouth who has Leasehold Tribunal expertise when it comes to lease extensions. Are you able to help me with?
  • I am looking into the costs of carrying out a lease extension for my first floor flat in Weymouth, and would like some figures on that.
  • We bought a leasehold with a freeholder who has not given us a counter-notice for a lease extension for our flat in Weymouth and are therefore deliberating the option of a vesting order. Is this something you can help us with?
  • I will soon view a one bedroom apartment, although not exactly my ideal property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present circumstances. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has 66 years unexpired on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm assuming that the bank will not be interested in extending the lease. My main concern is would it be difficult to sell on without a lease extension?
  • I am a freeholder of a block of flats in Weymouth, and the lessees are in the process of being given lease extensions. I should hopefully get the money within a month or so. Are there any tax implications, the property is in joint names with my husband ?
  • My husband and I have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our maisonette in Weymouth. We have a seventy nine year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has provided us with a financial figure that she is happy with to accept for the extension of the lease, which we are happy with as well and wish to proceed. All we need now is a property lawyers to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on our behalf.
  • My brother and I are in the throws of buying a flat (a studio flat located inWeymouth with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at apartments that had at least eighty five years unexpired. We came across a place we liked and the selling agent assured that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. Yesterday our conveyancing practitioners informed us the lease only has 68 years and therefore needs a lease extension. Do we run 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?
