I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Chester I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Chester for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 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 current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
