I am looking at a two flats in Grimsby both have about forty five years remaining on the leases. Will this present a problem?
There are plenty of short leases in Grimsby. The lease is a right to use the property for a period of time. As the lease shortens the value of the lease decreases and it becomes more costly to extend the lease. This is why it is advisable to extend the lease term. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage companies may be reluctant to lend money on such properties. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We advise that you seek professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.
