I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one close by in Hanwell I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hanwell in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
