    How is the lease structured? Where a Bedlington lease has no more than 80 years it will affect the marketability of the apartment. Check with your lender that they are content with the length of the lease. A short lease means that you will most likely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and it is worth finding out what this would cost. Remember, in most cases you will need to own the property for two years before you are legally able to carry out a lease extension. The prefered form of lease structure is a share of the freehold. In this arrangement the lessees have control and although a managing agent is often retained if it is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent acts for the leaseholders themselves.
