We're FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the selling agent informed us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct their recommended solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Fordingbridge
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this demand. Should the vendor require ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is counter productive. Contact the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Fordingbridge conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a commission or meet his conveyancing figures pre-set by HQ.
I am attracted to a two apartments in Fordingbridge both have about fifty years left on the leases. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?
There is no doubt about it. A leasehold flat in Fordingbridge is a wasting asset as a result of the reducing lease term. The closer the lease gets to zero years unexpired, the more it adversely affects the salability of the property. For most buyers and lenders, leases with less than eighty years become less and less attractive. On a more upbeat note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the premises 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 Fordingbridge conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. A more straightforward and quicker method of extending would be to contact your landlord directly and sound him out on the prospect of extending the lease. You may find he or she is happy to negotiate informally and willing to consider your offer straight off, without having to involve anyone else. This will save you time and money and it could help you reach a lower price on the lease. You need to ensure that any new 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.
