You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Turvey conveyancing lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Comparable properties in Turvey with a long lease are worth £216,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease terminates on 21st October 2093

With only 69 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings.
