Hi all,

Thanks for am your input. Apologies for the delay but had to attend to a personal matter that drew my attention away from my leasehold extension intentions.

I purchased the lease from the first leaseholder, who was granted 125 years with £10 per annum ground rent....

Recourse for work we paid out based on freeholder's incorrect advice

by eshroom

When my mum bought her flat exactly 5 years ago, she discovered an issue with the buildings wast pipe, which was under her basement flat. It had been leaking and caused a foul smell.

She informed the freeholder of the urgent drain issue and they said it was not something for them to investigate...

by eshroom

Thanks for the replies. I guess the question is first whether my mum not following procedure would make the claim fail, regardless of the freeholder's incorrect advice. Secondly, whether this is a small claims matter or a FTT matter.

Reply to Converting front garden into a driveway.

by Section20z

I think paving could be argued to be a normal use of a garden, (bearing in mind it will need to be permeable anyway for building regs) If the other 2 flats aren't going to complain then I'd be inclined to just do it.

Converting front garden into a driveway.

by ForumFirstTimer

Hello,

I purchased my ground floor flat last year, its a converted house with 3 flats in. It has a small front garden which is 100% mine within the lease, but it is large enough that it would fit a car on it.
