Top Ten Questions relating to White City Lease Extensions

  • I invested in buying a property in White City and it has nearon 68 years unexpired. I'd like to arrange a lease extension by twenty years
  • I own a leasehold flat in the White City area and was curious whether I could obtain a lease extension. What are your processes and fees. Has 60 years residual lease term
  • We have seen a house for sale for £215k and we are very keen on but we've just found out that it is leasehold. There are 899 years remaining so a lease extension is not a worry. 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 correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without owning the property. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in White City. The lease has just 65 years unexpired and ground rent is £75. Is it possible for the seller to serve the Initial Notice and then transfer over the right to me as the purchaser once I complete the buying process so that I can avoid waiting for the two year requisite period before I can apply to for a lease extension or have to deal with all this expense later? I have read this may be possible but will it be very time consuming to the seller? Unfortunately the landlord is absent, so I am not sure how this will play out.

  • I am the freeholder of a Victorian property split into two flats. I reside in the upper flat and my neighbour in the lower flat. My neighbour has approached me for a lease extension from the current sixety one years. What are my next steps?
  • We currently own a studio flat in White City and are looking to sell it this year so we can carry out some improvements on our family home. I checked the lease and it has sixety five years left. Not sure what to do, have read some bits on the web saying it will be 20k plus to get a lease extension. Do you have some advice on this? Should I contact the landlord first and will they be able to give me a cost?
  • I have 72 years remaining on my lease of a ground floor flat in White City, the Landlord requires a £15k premium for a statutory lease extension of 90yrs. I am looking for advice on whether this amount is acceptable

  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my maisonette in White City. 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 who specialises in lease extensions?
