Welcome to Extend Now!
Thinking of extending your lease or buying the freehold in North London? Get some expert valuation advice from a Chartered Surveyor and use it to negotiate a fair deal - avoid paying too much!
Did you know..... the law enables you to extend your lease by 90 years e.g. if there are presently 76 years remaining, you can obtain an extension to 166 years. This applies whether or not the landlord agrees. The law does not prohibit you from agreeing other sorts of lease extensions "outside the Act" with your landlord - it is just that the only sort of lease extension the law forces your landlord to agree to is the 90 year one.
Alternatively, providing you form a group with a sufficient number of the other leaseholders in the building, the law grants you the right to buy the freehold (also known as "collective enfranchisement").
If your freeholder / landlord has quoted you a price for extending your lease, don't make the mistake of assuming this is reasonable!
