Wootton Lease Extensions Example Support Desk Enquiries

  • Hi, I stumbled across your website. I'm seeking prices on what a lease extension will cost for a garden flat in Wootton. It's on sale at the moment but has just under 78 years outstanding on the lease
  • I have shares in the freehold of 2 blocks of flats comprising of six flats each. Two of the leaseholders want to extend their leases and I'm curious about the the process
  • I need to extend my current lease can you help me with that? My investigation with the Land Registry reveal that it has seventy four years residual lease term
  • The terms for the lease on my apartment in Wootton are 95 years from 14 Feb 1980. Please give me a quote for a lease extension if I give you more details please?
  • I am concerned that my daughter is being hoodwinked. She put in an offer on a one bed flat in Wootton, where the lease is around 59 years but she was advised by the estate agents that the current owner had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been told the seller was holding off for her to appoint conveyancers ahead of instigating the lease extension. Sounds devious, also it could take a while to sort it all out. Am I being too sceptical?
  • Me and my sister had entered into buying a garden flat in Wootton. I was advised by the EA that the lease extension had already been completed while on a viewing (75 years unexpired lease prior to extension). The description on the listing stated "sold with a long lease". It turns out at the point of exchange of contracts we find that the lease has not been extended. The owner apparently has a quote but no money to extend and consequently the owner wants to exchange and use the 10% deposit for the lease extension. My question is as the lease hasn't been extended is there not a danger that it would breach my lenders lease length criteria?
  • My (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?
  • I have a leasehold property in Wootton with sixety one years left on the lease. I need a to help me achieve a lease extension. Can you help?
  • Just a quick one, how much is the premium payable for a lease extension on a residential property in Wootton for a three bed flat - section 42 having been issued?
  • I am the freeholder of a property in Wootton where the leaseholder has requested a lease extension. Her valuer has provided a figure of £8,000, but has increased this by £2,000 at the drop of a hat. My surveyor has recommended a much higher premium. Negotiations have broken down so it looks at though we need to go to LVT. If a lease extension does go to tribunal, can I deal with this myself, just armed with the valuations I have? If not, what costs would I be likely to face?
