I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Mile End I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Mile End for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

Is the landlord entitled to charge exorbitant fees for a leasehold conveyance in Mile End?
Mile End conveyancing on leasehold apartments normally necessitates the purchaser’s lawyer submitting questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to answer these enquiries most will be willing to assist. They may charge a reasonable charge for answering enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some situations it is in excess of £800. The administration charge required by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of entitlements and obligations in relation to administration charges, otherwise the invoice is not strictly payable. Reality however dictates that one has little choice but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to sell the property.
