I have recently realised that I have 68 years remaining on my flat in Linslade. I am keen to extend my lease but my landlord is absent. What are my options?

If you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be lengthened by the magistrate. However, you will be required to demonstrate that you have done all that could be expected to find the landlord. On the whole an enquiry agent would be useful to conduct investigations and to produce a report which can be used as evidence that the landlord can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer in relation to proving the landlord’s disappearance and the application to the County Court covering Linslade.

I own a studio flat in Linslade, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Equivalent flats in Linslade with a long lease are worth £260,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease terminates on 21st October 2099

With only 74 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to range between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other issues 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.

Me and my partner are about to complete on the purchase a house in Linslade but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have agreed recompense from the owner of £3k by way of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but my lender will not agree to this. Why were they informed?

Any conveyancer that is on the lender approved list is obliged to advise the bank of any changes to the sale amount. If you did not allow your solicitor to notify the reduction to your mortgage company then they would have to disinstructing themselves from representing you and the mortgage company.
