Common questions relating to Withernsea Lease Extensions

  • I invested in buying a garden flat in Withernsea that I am now unable to sell as a result of the lease requiring a lease extension. How long will it take ?
  • I'm wanting to make an offer on a house in Withernsea but I'm concerned about it being leasehold. Do you know what title absolute means and is this regarding the lease? Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Britannia giving us the mortgage now?
  • I am going to purchase a flat in Withernsea. My offer is conditional upon a lease extension. The flat owner’s has served the Notice of Claim. Once this notice has been accepted by the freeholder, it is possible for the lessee to assign the benefit of that notice to me, the buyer, so that the buyer “stands in the shoes” of the Lessee, so to speak. I was wondering if this could be a problem for the mortgage lender Barclays . Moreover, which are the following lease extension steps to complete the purchase?

  • We have been in discussion with our freeholder after having a valuation on our ground floor flat in Withernsea. We have a 65 year lease and we wish to increase this to 99. The Freeholder has supplied us with a financial figure that he 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 to handle this for us. Can you please provide me what your costs would be to act on the lease extension.
  • I'm looking for some advice with regard to a lease extension on my maisonette in Withernsea. 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. Should I look to extend it now or wait until I sell my place and have it all tied in with the property sale?
