Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Bedfordshire. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and almost all are in Bedfordshire - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I purchased a 1st floor flat in Bedfordshire, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2012. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Bedfordshire with a long lease are worth £185,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 invoiced every year. The lease ends on 21st October 2084
With only 60 years unexpired the likely cost is going to span between £20,000 and £23,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
