  • My name´s Toby. I’m house hunting in Whaley Bridge I'm seeing a garden flat online, with about 70 years unexpired lease, how much does it cost on average to get a lease extension by, say, 45 years?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £185,000 and we are very interested but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 928 years residual lease term so a lease extension is not an issue. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this true? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without owning the property. Any information would be much appreciated.
  • Possibly made an error, I am actually looking for a lawyers in Whaley Bridge who has Leasehold Tribunal expertise in relation to lease extensions. Is this something you can help me with?
  • I have my suspicions that my niece might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a one bedroom apartment in Whaley Bridge, where the lease is around seventy one years but she was told by the estate agents that the owner had extended it to 125 years. Only now has she been informed the current owner was waiting for her to retain conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds devious, also it may take months to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • We have a residential flat in Whaley Bridge with seventy years remaining. Last year we were quoted a deal to grant a lease extension for another thirty years but also increase ground rent from notional to a little more..plus a premium I think of about 10k.

  • Offer accepted on a a garden flat in Whaley Bridge, were told numerous times by the EA that the lease had over 100 years, we have just had our mortgage offer sent through which states the lease as 85 years.Contracts were due to be exchanged within a week.

  • I own the freehold reversion of a property in Whaley Bridge where the leaseholder would like a lease extension. Her valuer has provided a figure of £9,000, but has increased this to £10,000 without too much effort. My surveyor has come back with £12,520. She does not appear to wish to negotiate wanting to go to a FTT. If a lease extension does go to a FTT, can I handle the matter myself, just equipped with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
  • I am currently in the process of remortgaging my studio flat in Whaley Bridge and the mortgage company that I am looking to switch to needs at least 85 years remaining on the lease in order for them to take the mortgage forward.

  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my one bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Whaley Bridge. 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 lawyers who specialises in lease extensions?
