Further Information
When purchasing a flat that has a short lease, it is important to understand that in addition to the purchase price, if you wish to extend the lease to 90+ years, you will need to pay a premium to the freeholder. This is done by way of serving a Section 42 notice to the freeholder requesting a lease extension with a suggested price for the extension. The freeholder has the right to refuse the offer and submit a counter notice with their suggested price. In most cases, the leaseholder must have owned the property for at least 2 years in order to serve a S42 notice. If you do not fully understand this process, please ask the auctioneers or a solicitor.
