As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

My partner and I may need to rent out our Sutton garden flat for a while due to a career opportunity. We instructed a Sutton conveyancing firm in 2004 but they have since shut and we did not think at the time seek any guidance as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?

Some leases for properties in Sutton do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord cannot unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

I inherited a basement flat in Sutton. Given that I can not reach agreement with the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal determine the sum payable for the purchase of the freehold?

Most definitely. We can put you in touch with a Sutton conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement decision for a Sutton premises is Buchanan Court 39 Vernon Road in April 2010. the Tribunal assessed that the premium payable for the freehold of the block should be £44,000. This case related to 2 flats. The unexpired lease term was 66.67 years.
