We are a couple about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Bromsgrove. We encountered a problem. The mortgage offer with Nottingham Building Society runs out on 26/9/2025 but the owners are suggesting a completion date of 30/9/2025. Is it possible to prolong the loan expiry date?

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please supply a car parking plan.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Bromsgrove I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Bromsgrove for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
