  • Yes, thanks, do pm me his details.

    I'm just a little hesitant in case of any issues, so am waiting for a letter from the freeholders stating they have no issues with us extending as soon as we buy.

    Do all the other freeholders have to renew at the same time, or do they just have to agree to let us do it?

  • No you don't all need to renew at the same time but the way to guy we used charged was a fixed price for 1 renewal and then an extra 1 hour charge per extra lessee. The total cost was then divided between the 3 freeholders. This could be attractive to the other freeholders if they don't appear keen as if they renew at a later date as they'll incur the full charge.
    A letter from the other freeholders stating that they will not charge you marriage value after completion is not legally binding so you can only go on trust - something that is not easy to do before you've even moved in!
