Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one close by in Roehampton I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Roehampton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount 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 at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
