I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Thurston I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Thurston in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may 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 term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
