Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Rowley Regis I like with a park and station nearby, however it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Rowley Regis for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
