The owners have very brash vendors who has insisted on a exclusivity contract with a payment 6,000. Are such agreements sensible?

There are two main drawbacks with entering into any lock out agreement (sometimes referred to as an exclusivity agreement) is that it can distract from making progress with the conveyancing work, so in the absence of it needing minimal or no negotiation then it could transpire to be unhelpful.

A supplemental issue is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted purchaser should not expect to be issued with an injunction to prevent the owner selling to another buyer, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the recovery of abortive costs and, in rare scenarios, the extra payment of penalties.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two apartments in Castle Bromwich both have approximately forty five years remaining on the lease term. Will this present a problem?

There are no two ways about it. A leasehold flat in Castle Bromwich is a deteriorating asset as a result of the shortening lease. The closer the lease gets to its expiry date, the more it adversely affects the value of the premises. For most purchasers and banks, leases with under 75 years become less and less attractive. On a more positive note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the property for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of a residence with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Castle Bromwich conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. More often than not it is possible to negotiate informally with the freeholder to extend the lease. They may agree to a smaller lump sum and an increase in the ground rent, but to shorter extension terms in return. You need to ensure that the agreed terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.
