  • My wife has an apartment located in Wool which we have just put on the market. The leasehold has just over sixety one years balance left on it and we are concerned this will come up for anyone who may be interested.

  • We hope to sell our one bedroom apartment in Wool but we may require a lease extension, or possibly cover the expense of our buyers. Are you able to recommend someone to handle this?
  • Is it possible to talk with you about a flat in Wool, I am considering buying at auction next week. The flat has a short lease and I wanted to inquire about how much it would cost to get a lease extension and for your services.
  • I am concerned that my niece might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She put in an offer on a garden flat in Wool, where the lease is around 61 years but she was told by the selling agents that the current owner had extended it to 125 years. Only now has she been informed the seller was holding off for her to appoint conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds underhand, also it could take months to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • My lawyers (separately handling my lease extension) said I need a licence to alter given that I wish to carry out a loft extension to my property. Is this strictly required given that I have a share of the freehold. I've informally discussed the loft conversion with my co-freeholder some time ago and he had no objection once I reassured him that if my builder damages the roof I won't expect the co-freeholder to pay for future repairs to the roof. Assuming I need formal consent should I get the licence to alter and then start the lease extension process?
  • Hi I am the freeholder title in a 3 bedroom flat in Wool. The leaseholder has a sixety nine year lease and would like to purchase another 125 years. He is offering me £21,000 but I am unsure if this is a correct amount
  • I'm looking at buying a flat in Wool at a price of £256,000 the flat has approximately sixety four years remaining on the lease. My offer was subject to the lease being extended... .. that was back in November, expecting I'd have completed by Christmas. The seller has just come back saying they'll reduce the price by£8k if they don't have to deal with the lease extension. I'm unsure whether that's a good idea
