After what feels like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Brackley agreed to, the owners do nevertheless have a dependent purchase.

Concerning the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some buyers will apply for the mortgage with Kent Reliance and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancer to move forward with searches.

I bought a split level flat in Brackley, conveyancing formalities finalised 4 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Comparable flats in Brackley with over 90 years remaining are worth £186,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 invoiced annually. The lease finishes on 21st October 2077
With only 52 years unexpired the likely cost is going to range between £29,500 and £34,000 plus 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 are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence.

There are no doubt other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations.
