I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Brinsworth I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Brinsworth for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the 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 may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my garden flat in Brinsworth. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, but I have just had a half-yearly maintenance charge invoice – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is pay the service charge as usual given that all ground rent and service payments should be apportioned on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
