I am looking at a two flats in Beadnell both have approximately 50 years remaining on the lease term. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?

There are plenty of short leases in Beadnell. The lease is a right to use the premises for a period of time. As a lease shortens the value of the lease deteriorates and results in it becoming more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is generally wise to increase the term of the lease.

We advise that you seek professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this field.
