What makes a Liskeard lease defective?

Leasehold conveyancing in Liskeard is not unique. All leases are unique and legal mistakes in the legal wording can result in certain provisions are missing. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:

    A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party.

A defective lease will likely cause issues when trying to sell a property primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property.

If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is problematic they may refuse to grant the mortgage, obliging the purchaser to pull out.

I own a garden flat in Liskeard, conveyancing was carried out November 1996. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent properties in Liskeard with over 90 years remaining are worth £195,000. The ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2088

With only 64 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £14,300 and £16,400 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
