Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Please supply a car parking plan.

I am employed by a long established estate agent office in Eccleshall where we have experienced a number of leasehold sales derailed as a result of short leases. I have been given contradictory information from local Eccleshall conveyancing firms. Could you clarify whether the seller of a flat can initiate 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 kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer can avoid having to wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord 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.

Does the lease have in excess of 90 years unexpired? Generally speaking the cost for major works are not built into the maintenance charges, albeit that a few managing agents in Eccleshall require tenants to pay into a sinking fund created for the specific intention of establishing a fund for larger repairs or maintenance. It would be sensible to enquire if there is anything that is prohibited in the lease. For instance it is reasonably common in Eccleshall leases that pets are not permitted in certain buildings in Eccleshall. If you like the apartmentin Eccleshall but your dog can’t live with you then you will be faced hard compromise.
My mother and father are unable to locate their Eccleshall property on the HMLR site. They have a vague recollection back in the 70’s when they acquired the property there were complications regarding Eccleshall not being recognised in some systems.
The vast majority of properties in Eccleshall should appear. Have you attempted a search to just the postcode. Usually it will mention all the properties within that postcode. Where registered it will be there with a title number. If they bought back in the 60’s it's conceivable it may be not yet registered. The property may still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to locate the original title papers which might be with your parent’s mortgage company.
