I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one close by in Teddington I like with a park and station nearby, however it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Teddington for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
I was recommended by a few selling agents in Teddington to select a solicitor using your seach tool. What’s the financial inducement for Estate Agents to offer your lawyers over a competitor’s?
We refuse to make any commission for pointing buyers and sellers to this site. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
I am the proprietor of a first floor flat in Teddington. In the absence of agreement between myself and the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the sum due for the purchase of the freehold?
Most certainly. We are happy to put you in touch with a Teddington conveyancing firm who can help.
An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Teddington flat is Flat D 15 Claremont Gardens in September 2013. TheTribunal determined in accordance with section48 and Schedule13 of the Leasehold Reform,Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 that the premium for the extended lease should be fourteen thousand one hundred and eighty seven pounds (£14,187.00) This case was in relation to 1 flat.
What makes a Teddington lease unmortgageable?
There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Teddington. Most leases are individual and legal mistakes in the legal wording can sometimes mean that certain clauses are not included. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:
-
Repairing obligations to or maintain elements of the building A duty to insure the building
You may have a problem when selling your property if you have a defective lease primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. Halifax, The Royal Bank of Scotland, and Barclays Direct all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease is problematic they may refuse to provide security, obliging the purchaser to pull out.
