How long do I have to wait before I have the right to extend my lease?

Assuming you are a qualifying tenant in all other respects, you have the right to extend your lease.

There is no longer a requirement to have owned the flat for a certain amount of time.

Lease extension can be a difficult process. We recommend you get professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this area.
