Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Church End I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Church End suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

If you need a home loan that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may 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 term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

Sometimes these lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there exists a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are free to choose your own lawyer. You need to be aware that the majority of mortgage providers specify a panel list of law firms you have to use for the mortgage aspect of your house move.
