You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
22 days into purchasing a property in Longfield. Conveyancing solicitor has told us the property is "Leasehold". Will this likely make a difference on our Natwest valuation?
Longfield conveyancing does not usually involve leasehold houses. The key consideration here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a peppercorn rent, it's virtually freehold, so it’s unlikely to affect the value significantly.
At the other extreme, if it's, say, Sixty years it will have a adverse impact on the saleability, and probably wouldn't be mortgageable. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be stated in the lease to be supplied to your lawyer.
