I have been on the look out for a flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in North Acton I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in North Acton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
I have just started marketing my ground floor apartment in North Acton. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have just had a half-yearly maintenance charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as normal as all ground rent and maintenance charges will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without getting anywhere. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on such issues? Can you recommend a North Acton conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?
