Hi all! Well my house has a low lease! After my dad past all paperwork was put in folder, after finding it I've found the lease is 61 years! I'm wanting to extend or purchase lease/freehold ( leasehold is still a popular option around here 90 % are still leasehold ) or fact find at least to get ready for house sale.
Can I just write to the 'landlord' or estate as they say here and ask politely first how much would extension or freehold cost. I don't want to instruct a solicitor until I know what I'm doing.
Sorry it's all new to me this completely overwhelming potentially selling the home I grew up in ( I'm going bigger with my Mum & DC ) and not having a clue what I'm doing on top ( my 1st house sale ) isn't helping either!
Trying to take the weight of mums shoulders !
TIA
Thank you all
