I work for a busy estate agent office in Stow on the Wold where we see a number of leasehold sales jeopardised due to short leases. I have been given inconsistent advice from local Stow on the Wold conveyancing solicitors. Please can you confirm whether the vendor of a flat can start the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the proposed purchaser can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.

Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.

I own a 2 bed flat in Stow on the Wold, conveyancing formalities finalised March 2007. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Comparable properties in Stow on the Wold with an extended lease are worth £201,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease ends on 21st October 2087

With just 64 years left to run the likely cost is going to be between £14,300 and £16,400 as well as costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
