I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Branston I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Branston suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could 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 speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
My husband and I are new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent advised that the seller will only move forward if we instruct the agent's preferred lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Branston
We suspect that the owner is not behind this requirement. If they want ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Contact the owners directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to appoint your preferred Branston conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by head office.
