I'm looking at extending the lease on my flat. Victorian house, me and the guy downstairs own the freehold. We both want to extend the leases, the current leases are fine (other than the duration) so wouldn't need a new lease writing.
What's the best/cheapest way of doing this? Quotes look to be about £500 per flat (plus land registry fees, etc) whereas I was hoping for about half of that. The other leaseholder was suggesting we could do it ourselves but I'm somewhat wary of that, it could be an expensive thing to cock up.
Must post faster! Anyway ...
