HP mum

I own a FH property and am planning to renovate it. It is a 3 floor property with garages at ground level. One of the garages is held on a Lease by s/o else - but I own the FH.

Slight delay reply.
JK0 - I AM the freeholder of the majority of the site.

The layout is a little bit confusing to explain easily here: There's one large room on g/f level - I own the FH on half but the other half - with no dividing wall - is held on a 999y lease as there is a room...

What does it say in your lease about charges? It is reasonable to assume that anything outside the demised property is the Freeholders (well not yours) therefore it is likely that a charge is warranted.

If you need planning permission, the freeholder can certainly object to that permission.

Most leases allow the freeholder some say, and the very least cost you should expect is something like 5% of the project cost to go to the freeholder's surveyor to check that you have taken adequate...
