Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Buckinghamshire I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Buckinghamshire in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Buckinghamshire. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Buckinghamshire - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Much to my surprise my property lawyer in Buckinghamshire is asking me for personal identification documents saying that this forms part of his legal duty as a solicitor on the bank Conveyancing panel. Is this right?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require Buckinghamshire conveyancing solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identity of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing business. The Client Care letter that you need to sign will no doubt confirm this. Your lawyer is right that the lender also require certain documents to be viewed. If a you refuse to provide ID verification documents, your conveyancer would not be able to accept instructions from you. Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the bank's UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements
