If you share the freehold with someone else, there still needs to be suitable time remaining on the lease.

@aggi £500 is nothing when talking about doing lease stuff right, I'm a leaseholder and it cost me £10k to extend mine, which I thought was reasonable.

That £10k must have included some marriage value though? As a share of freeholder that part isn’t relevant so it’s just legal fees you need to worry about.

Nope, it was the cost of the extension plus fees. It was more than 80 years to start with so marriage value didn't apply.

Still, getting it done properly by a decent solicitor would be worth £500 to me. IMO
