Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Bishops Waltham I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Bishops Waltham suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
