I acquired a garden flat in Alcester, conveyancing having been completed in 1998. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Comparable flats in Alcester with a long lease are worth £175,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 levied per year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2082
With 58 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £23,800 and £27,400 plus legals.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending 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 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 without first seeking the advice of a professional.

The is no need to bring up to date the title for the property as long as you have the evidence needed to show how the name change occurred.
The purchaser’s lawyer will review the registered entries and require evidence to establish the change of name for instance marriage documentation.
