I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Broughton Astley I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Broughton Astley in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.

I am a negotiator for a long established estate agent office in Broughton Astley where we have experienced a few flat sales put at risk due to short leases. I have been given contradictory information from local Broughton Astley conveyancing solicitors. Could you clarify whether the vendor of a flat can start the lease extension process for the buyer?
Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed prior to, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
