If you are instructing a conveyancer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Kingsley conveyancing practice) it is essential that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work.

The following questions might be helpful:

I acquired a 2 bed flat in Kingsley, conveyancing was carried out 9 years ago. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Equivalent flats in Kingsley with an extended lease are worth £197,000. The ground rent is £55 yearly. The lease runs out on 21st October 2081

You have 56 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £29,500 and £34,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you 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.
