I am employed by a busy estate agent office in Nantyglo where we see a few flat sales put at risk as a result of short leases. I have been given inconsistent advice from local Nantyglo conveyancing firms. Please can you shed some light as to whether the owner of a flat can initiate the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

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. The benefit of this is that the buyer can avoid having to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed prior to, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.

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 purchaser.

I am the registered owner of a studio flat in Nantyglo, conveyancing having been completed in 1999. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Comparable properties in Nantyglo with over 90 years remaining are worth £197,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 charged once a year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2079

With only 54 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £32,300 and £37,400 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
