Back In 2002, I bought a leasehold house in Alfreton. Conveyancing and Britannia mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1995. The conveyancing solicitor in Alfreton who previously acted has now retired. What should I do?

First contact the Land Registry to make sure that this person is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. There is no need to instruct a Alfreton conveyancing lawyer to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for £3. You should note that regardless, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.

Similar properties in Alfreton with an extended lease are worth £185,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 yearly. The lease finishes on 21st October 2086

With only 60 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £20,000 and £23,000 plus costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations.
