Our fixed fee lease extension service
We offer a fixed legal fee of £1495 plus VAT (20 %) to assist you with a statutory lease extension. This is your right to add 90 years to your lease and replace your ground rent with a peppercorn rent (nil) by serving a section 42 notice on the freeholder.
This is a legal right that cannot be denied by your freeholder provided the correct process is followed. The advantage over informal negotiations with your freeholder is that the formal process has a fixed timeline.
To get started and fix the valuation date of the lease premium with a section 42 notice get in touch with us by completing the contact form below.

We live in Australia and worked with Ricky Coleman to update a lease on a Brighton property, and I would highly recommend his services whether your an ex-pat or local. I found Ricky super helpful, efficient, knows his stuff and kept us informed throughout the process. Thank you.

The whole process experienced was easy. Mr Coleman was courteous and friendly throughout. Matters were explained at each stage. Despite delays at the Land Registry, I was always kept up to date and reassured matters were in hand. I am very grateful.
