I'm purchasing a new build house in East Yorkshire with a mortgage from Bank of Ireland. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead.

I am a negotiator for a reputable estate agent office in East Yorkshire where we see a few leasehold sales jeopardised as a result of short leases. I have received contradictory information from local East Yorkshire conveyancing firms. Can you shed some light as to whether the seller of a flat can start the lease extension process for the buyer?
Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer can avoid having to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
An alternative approach is to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
I acquired a 2 bed flat in East Yorkshire, conveyancing having been completed July 2010. 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? Equivalent flats in East Yorkshire with over 90 years remaining are worth £197,000. The ground rent is £55 yearly. The lease ends on 21st October 2081
You have 55 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £31,400 and £36,200 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
