While no property lawyer will ever be able to make a leasehold transaction truly simple, what we can commit to is making it as straightforward a process as possible. Leasehold is widely recognised as one of the most technical and risk-laden areas of residential property law, which is why we treat it as a genuine specialism rather than an afterthought.
Our specialist team has dealt with a wide range of leasehold transactions over many years and across every region of England and Wales. We have particular expertise in dealing with leasehold purchases in London, where the market is dominated by flats and apartments and where the lease itself often hides the most important commercial issues. Due to that expertise, we are well placed to ensure that your purchase is run with the insight and experience it deserves.
A fundamental element of our service is the ability to offer bespoke advice and guidance on the key issues that matter most in modern leasehold transactions, including cladding and building safety, ground rent obligations and service charge liabilities both past and future.
We also understand that leasehold properties can vary considerably in structure and risk profile. We regularly act on:
We are well placed to guide clients through the various nuances that come with each of these purchase types so that they are protected against the pitfalls that many lawyers can fall into when leasehold is treated as just another transaction.
We treat leasehold property as a specialist area of property law and we strongly recommend that you instruct a lawyer with genuine experience and expertise before entering into any leasehold agreement.
