My lawyer has uncovered a defect with the lease for the apartment we are buying in Neath Port Talbot. The other side have offered defective title insurance as a solution. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our solicitor has advised that he must ensure that the bank is willing to move forward with this solution. Are we the client or is the bank?

Even though you have a mortgage offer from the bank does not mean to say that the property will meet their requirements for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications. You and the mortgage company are the client. These conveyancing instructions must be adhered to.

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Neath Port Talbot. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Neath Port Talbot I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Neath Port Talbot in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

If you require a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
