I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Blakelaw I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Blakelaw in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

Back In 2007, I bought a leasehold house in Blakelaw. Conveyancing and The Royal Bank of Scotland mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1994. The conveyancing practitioner in Blakelaw who acted for me is not around. Any advice?
The first thing you should do is make enquiries of HMLR to be sure that this person is indeed the new freeholder. It is not necessary to instruct a Blakelaw conveyancing practitioner to do this as it can be done on-line for £3. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the legitimate landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

Me and my husband are first time buyers just having agreed a price on a property in Blakelaw, and are about to get solicitors appointed. We have used the various rating tools and the results are from all over the country. Is it essential to have a Blakelaw conveyancer local to the prospective new home? We are content to do all the communicating over the internet, but I am thinking at some stage we will need to attend the conveyancing practitioner's office to sign documents?
The conveyancing practitioner does not have to be in Blakelaw, but opting for local means that you can go in if you need to, for instance, if a signature is needed urgently. In addition, a Blakelaw solicitor have established relationships with local agents and (if the vendor has chosen a local property lawyer) with them, which will help smooth the process.
