Do you have a property problem?
Scrivener Tibbatts - Chartered Surveyors would like to help you. We pride ourselves on our professionalism. We offer our clients expert impartial advice and friendly personal service based on our many years of experience.
Lease Extensions
Flat owners who have owned their flats for two years or more are entitled to demand a lease extension of 90 years in addition to their existing unexpired term and have all ground rents reduced to nil.
Lease Enfranchisement
Flat owners wishing to purchase the freehold of their property may demand to do so at any time provided at least 50% of eligible flat owners also apply. For example, a building containing two flats needs both owners to demand the freehold. One with three flats also needs a minimum of two flat owners.
Party Wall Advice
Party walls are shared walls separating buildings such as semi-detached and terraced houses. A floor separating two flats is a party structure. You must notify your neighbour if you are planning any extension or major structural alterations.
