I plan to simultaneously remortgage with Bank of Scotland to free up equity. The broker dealing with the remortgage suggested I get two quotes : one for the lease extension and one for outright acquisition .The lease began in 1991 and since then the ground rent has been raised from £38.00 per year to £100 per year.
  • I am about to view a two bedroom flat, although not exactly my dream property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present situation. However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has fivety seven years balance left on the lease. It is also a repo so I'm assuming that the vendor will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My primary concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?
  • We have a one bedroom flat based in Winterton. There is 81 years unexpired on the lease and we want a lease extension. How much does it cost on average to get a lease extension by, say,twenty years

  • Me and my sister are buying a two bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Winterton which has share of freehold and a leasehold. The lease was starting to get low so the owner commenced extending the lease. The vendor has submitted the lease extension paperwork to HMLR. A crucial aspect of the house buying process is for our conveyancing practitioners to do a "priority search" on the lease. The concern here is that as a lease extension has been submitted we've been told by our property lawyers it may not be possible to do this "priority search" right now as the new lease title number has not been issued. Is it correct that we have to wait until the new lease is registered?
