I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one near me in Upton Park I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Upton Park for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?

If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account.

It best that you clear the invoice as usual as all rents and service invoices should be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
