I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Clapton I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Clapton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account.

We expect to complete our sale of a £250,000 maisonette in Clapton next Wednesday. The management company has quoted £372 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and 3 years service charge statements. Is the landlord entitled to charge such fees for a flat conveyance in Clapton?

Clapton conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes normally necessitates the purchaser’s conveyancer submitting enquiries for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is not legally bound to respond to these enquiries the majority will be content to do so. They may levy a reasonable administration fee for responding to enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average costs for the information that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it exceeds £800. The administration charge demanded by the landlord must be sent together with a synopsis of rights and obligations in respect of administration charges, without which the invoice is not strictly payable. Reality however dictates that you have no choice but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to exchange contracts with the buyer.
