About to place an offer on a leasehold apartment in Broadstone. The selling agents assure me that it is the norm for flats in Broadstone to have less than 75 years unexpired on the lease. I am getting a loan with Chelsea Building Society. Is this going to be a problem if the lease has 72 years unexpired.

Chelsea Building Society have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 21/10/2026 the requirements read as follows :
I am buying my first flat in Broadstone with a loan from Virgin Money. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The sale representative suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about the deal as it will impact my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the UK Finance website. UK Finance form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Broadstone is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Broadstone are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Broadstone you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Broadstone may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
