Even though your last Totland conveyancing solicitor is not available you can check your lease to see if you are permitted to let out the property. The rule is that if the deeds are silent, subletting is allowed. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you are obliged to obtain consent via your landlord or some other party before subletting. The net result is that you cannot sublet in the absence of first obtaining consent. Such consent must not not be unreasonably turned down. If your lease prohibits you from letting out the property you will need to ask your landlord for their consent.

I inherited a 1 bedroom flat in Totland, conveyancing was carried out December 1997. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Equivalent flats in Totland with an extended lease are worth £211,000. The ground rent is £45 levied per year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2093

With 67 years unexpired the likely cost is going to range between £10,500 and £12,000 as well as costs.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt 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 based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
