I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Raglan I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Raglan for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
