I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Preston Park I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Preston Park in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.

We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the agent advised that the seller will only go ahead if we instruct their recommended solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Preston Park
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this request. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you will continue to instruct your own,trusted Preston Park conveyancing firm - as opposed tothose that will earn their negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.
I purchased a property in Preston Park last 4/7/2025 and to date it is still not registered with HM Land Registry. It was part of a new estate and my conveyancer told me that it may take 12 months to register. I have spoken with HM Land Registry directly and they have informed me the original application was cancelled due to failure to reply to requisitions. Do I need to be concerned?
It is your conveyancer that you really need to contact in order to satisfy any issues which have arisen as part of the registration formalities for your Preston Park property. Normal Preston Park conveyancing practice includes an undertaking on the part of the previous owner’s conveyancer that they will help resolve any registration raised by HMLR so it may be a case of seeking to enforce that undertaking if necessary.
