This will mean that your lease can be granted an extra 90 years by the magistrate. You will be obliged to prove that you have done all that could be expected to locate the freeholder. For most situations an enquiry agent should be helpful to try and locate and to produce an expert document which can be used as proof that the landlord can not be located.
