Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Brynmill I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Brynmill suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
