Helen (my wife) and I may need to sub-let our Heswall ground floor flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Heswall conveyancing practice in 2001 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any advice as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?

Notwithstanding that your previous Heswall conveyancing solicitor is not around you can check your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the property. The rule is that if the deeds are silent, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you need to seek permission via your landlord or some other party in advance of subletting. This means that you cannot sublet without first obtaining permission. Such consent must not not be unreasonably turned down. If your lease prohibits you from letting out the property you should ask your landlord for their consent.

I purchased a leasehold flat in Heswall, conveyancing having been completed June 2000. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Corresponding flats in Heswall with a long lease are worth £201,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease expires on 21st October 2090

With just 65 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £13,300 and £15,400 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional 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 without first seeking the advice of a professional.
