I am looking at a two maisonettes in St Johns which have about forty five years left on the leases. Will this present a problem?
There are plenty of short leases in St Johns. The lease is a right to use the premises for a period of time. As the lease shortens the value of the lease reduces and results in it becoming more costly to extend the lease. This is why it is advisable to increase the term of the lease. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage companies may be unwilling to lend money on such properties. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We advise that you seek professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this field.
