Where there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to determine the price. Usually, the professionals involved would try and negotiate a price and it is only where there is no agreement that an application to the Tribunal may become necessary.
Lease extension can be a difficult process. We recommend you get professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this area.
