Sedbergh conveyancing does not ordinarily involve leasehold houses. The main factor here is the remaining lease term and the ground rent. If it's 999 years with a peppercorn rent, it's virtually freehold, so it’s unlikely to impact the value significantly.

At the other end of the spectrum, if it's, say, Sixty years it is bound to have a adverse effect on the value, and most likely wouldn't be acceptable to the lender. The length of lease and ground rent will be set out in the lease which should be made available to your lawyer.
