I work for a long established estate agent office in Fulwell where we see a number of leasehold sales derailed due to short leases. I have received conflicting advice from local Fulwell conveyancing solicitors. Please can you clarify whether the owner of a flat can instigate the lease extension process for the buyer?
As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or at the same time as completion of the sale.
Alternatively, it may be possible 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 buyer.
Despite our best endeavours, we have been unsuccessful in negotiating a lease extension in Fulwell. Can this matter be resolved via the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?
You certainly can. We can put you in touch with a Fulwell conveyancing firm who can help.
