I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Rufford I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Rufford in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan that many years will be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.

The 1954 Act gives protection to commercial leaseholders, granting the dueness to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we appoint their chosen conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Rufford

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this request. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the vendors direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to appoint your preferred Rufford conveyancing firm - not the ones that will give their estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.
