Our conveyancer has advised that he intends to complete and exchange simultaneously on the sale of our £400,000 maisonette in Ipswich next Wednesday. The landlords agents has quoted £408 for Certificate of Compliance, building insurance schedule and previous years statements of service charge. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge exorbitant fees for a leasehold conveyance in Ipswich?

Ipswich conveyancing on leasehold apartments normally necessitates the buyer’s conveyancer sending questions for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to respond to such questions most will be content to do so. They are entitled to invoice a reasonable charge for answering questions or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some transactions it is above £800. The administration charge demanded by the landlord must be sent together with a summary of entitlements and obligations in relation to administration charges, without which the invoice is not strictly payable. Reality however dictates that one has little choice but to pay whatever is requested of you if you want to exchange contracts with the buyer.

I inherited a basement flat in Ipswich, conveyancing formalities finalised in 1999. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Comparable flats in Ipswich with an extended lease are worth £197,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 invoiced annually. The lease terminates on 21st October 2080

With only 55 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £31,400 and £36,200 plus legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
