I am the registered owner of a leasehold flat in Aughton, conveyancing having been completed May 2011. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension?

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide the actual costs without more detailed investigations.

I have just started marketing my basement apartment in Aughton.Conveyancing has not commenced however I have recently received a half-yearly service charge invoice – Do I pay up?
It best that you discharge the service charge as you normally would given that all ground rent and maintenance charges should be apportionedas part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially
