I have been on the look out for a flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Kesgrave I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Kesgrave suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
Do I need to be wary about third parties that I am dealing with are suggesting a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Kesgrave conveyancing practice?
As is the case with many professional services, often referrals from family and friends can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are many parties with a vested interest in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies might all recommend solicitors to select. Sometimes these lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there exists a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You have the discretion to appoint your own lawyer. However, bear in mind that some mortgage providers operate an approved list of law firms you must use for the lender related work in your house move.
