I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Seven Sisters I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Seven Sisters for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities 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 lawyer concerning this matter.
