I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Fforestfach I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Fforestfach for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
I am looking at a couple of flats in Fforestfach both have in the region of 50 years unexpired on the lease term. Will this present a problem?
A lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease gets shorter the saleability of the lease deteriorates and it becomes more costly to acquire a lease extension. This is why it is advisable to extend the lease term. It is often difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage companies less inclined to grant a loan on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We recommend you seek professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.
