If you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for for permission to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be granted an extra 90 years by the Court. However, you will be required to prove that you have done all that could be expected to locate the lessor. In some cases a specialist would be helpful to try and locate and prepare a report which can be accepted by the court as proof that the landlord is indeed missing.

I bought a leasehold flat in Truro, conveyancing was carried out September 2006. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Similar properties in Truro with a long lease are worth £227,000. The ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease finishes on 21st October 2098

With just 72 years left to run the likely cost is going to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer.

Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
