Me and my brother have a renovated Georgian house in Hainault. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Virgin Money. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Hainault and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Hainault I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Hainault suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
