Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Boroughbridge I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Boroughbridge in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?

If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

I have recently placed an offer on an apartment in Boroughbridge and the estate agent that we are using recommended his property lawyer. She quoted £800 including VAT and 3rd party costs. Does this sound steep?

Don't just go on a single quote. You should seek like-for-like quotes for your conveyancing in Boroughbridge. Then select one that you are comfortable with and crucially, is on the approved panel of the lender that you have applied for a mortgage from.
