I purchased a freehold property in Axbridge but still invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Axbridge and has limited impact for conveyancing in Axbridge but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of fresh rentcharges post 1977.

Old rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be extinguished.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Axbridge I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Axbridge for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
