“I am still looking to find out what happens if you don't need a mortgage as we are buying outright and I have only been on it for 10 mins. But otherwise, it is a very comprehensive website as far as I can tell. I have never bought a property before so having the process step by step with expectations and jargon explained has been a relief.”

Hi, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Being a cash buyer does make buying a property easier and faster as you don't have to deal with a mortgage lender. That said, when you do decide to put an offer on a property, you will want to think carefully about doing a survey. This guide sets out the different types of surveys on offer. https://hoa.org.uk/advice/guides-for-homeowners/i-am-buying/what-sort-of-survey-should-i-have/ You won't have the reassurance with the lender's valuation of the property that you are not over-paying. As a cash buyer, also be careful when buying a new build, and make sure you get a good and independent conveyancer. You will want to make sure that the proper warranties and guarantees are in place. This is especially true if you are buying a property that has been converted from an office building. Good luck, Paula

Hi AJ, I think you may be referring to our valuation tool. https://hoa.org.uk/advice/guides-for-homeowners/i-am-selling/free-instant-home-valuation/ I'm not sure this will help you determine how much it will cost to extend your lease or buy the freehold. As you have 81 years left on the lease, it's really important for you to research your options now as your lease extension will cost more and more when it goes below 80 years. That's because you will need to pay a marriage value to your freeholder - which is essentially 50% of the uplift in the property price as a result of extending your lease. We do have a lease extension calculator you can use to get a ballpark figure. It's powered by the government funded Leasehold Advisory Service - https://hoa.org.uk/advice/guides-for-homeowners/i-am-buying/leasehold-extension-calculator/ In order to get an idea of how much it will cost to buy the freehold vs extending your lease, you should reach out to an ALEP registered leasehold solicitor or valuer. Here is a link to a form if you wish to contact our lease experts. https://hoa.org.uk/services/find-lease-extension-solicitor/ Good luck, Paula
