Freehold valuation

[Macromia]

We are buying freehold, there is no change of leases, apart from maybe extending them in one transaction to save on legal costs in the future

Yes, sorry - I didn't check what I was replying to properly.

I would expect freehold purchase via informal versus statutory routes to have similar potential risks, but it can't hurt to see what you are offered.

Yes, it doesn't. Though I think I'm not getting the best deal but it seems like a deal at the moment

Yes and the convertion has happened in 1978 so there is no cheap way for us.

all of this situation with the leasehold reform is like a carrot in front of the donkey, imho

Hi,
have sent Land Registry a request for the lease but didn't hear back anything as yet.

How long does it take ?
Thanks
