Case Study
Buying the Freehold. Help for leaseholders
Mundania Court, Forest Hill Road, London SE22 0NQ
The Challenge
It started with a challenging freeholder who's known for being difficult, or perhaps, a strategically clever landlord .The landlord was using the leverage of 4 Telecommunications masts and roof top to obstruct the deal in anyway possible. The Client was crying out for a pushy adviser who could rebuild the demoralized collective enfranchisement group. We took over with just 3 days to prepare for tribunal, else all £13.000 was lost and a below market opportunity.
The Solution
We calculated the alternative cost of a lease extension at circa £17,500 per flat based the claim date compared to a new claim if it all fell apart. We found a previous LVT case: Roman Road that had considered enfranchisement valuing of telecoms costs. 3 days later we were ready for the case, the settlement negotiated over several hours in a private room at the LVT was £356,000 with agreement for a leaseback of the roof and telecoms a cash saving of over £500.000
