Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and found one close by in Brading I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Brading in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension 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 solicitor regarding this.
