Fiveweeks into purchasing a property in Epping. Conveyancing lawyer has called to say the property is "Leasehold". Does this adversely affect the marketability of the property?
Epping conveyancing does not usually involve leasehold houses. The main consideration here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a nominal rent, it's essentially freehold, so it shouldn't impact the marketability significantly.
At the other end of the spectrum, if it's, say, 50 years it will have a adverse effect on the saleability, and most likely wouldn't be acceptable to the bank. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be set out in the lease to be supplied to your property lawyer.
