Short leases cover leases of properties for relatively brief terms and the way those terms affect rights, charges and future options. A solicitor in this area drafts or negotiates short leases, reviews existing leases for renewal or extension, and handles issues around service charges, ground rent, and forfeiture. They also advise on extending a lease or purchasing the freehold, and on applying to the Land Registry to register changes. The work often involves coordinating with freeholders, managing agents, and housing associations.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decisive issues are the enforceability of the lease, deadlines for extensions or renewals, and the impact of lease terms on rights of occupancy and ownership. A solicitor provides guidance on securing proper documentation, ensuring correct calculation of charges, and navigating any disputes arising from service charges or renewals within statutory timeframes.

Very happy with their performance overall - very pragmatic and practical approach, and coped really well when it became apparent (at the lat minute, virtually - with 7 days to go) that the timescale of the sale needed to be compressed for tax purposes.
