I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Soham I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Soham in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

We suspect that the owner is not behind this ultimatum. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is going to damage their objectives. Contact the sellers directly and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to use your preferred Soham conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give the estate agent a commission or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by corporate headquarters.

Finally our conveyancing in Soham is set to complete next Friday, however the sellers I am purchasing from wants to move out 24 hours later at at 2pm. Should I accept such a idea?

It is not possible to complete on a Saturday due to the bank systems aren't operating.
