Assuming the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Royton - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

    Please note that where the lease has no more than eighty years it will impact the marketability of the flat. Check with your mortgage company that they are willing to to proceed given the lease term. A short lease means that you will most likely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of what this would cost. Remember, in most cases you will be be obliged to have owned the property for 24 months before you are entitled to extend the lease. It is important to be aware whether redecorating or some other major work is due shortly to be shared by the leasehold owners and will dramatically impact the level of the maintenance costs or necessitate a specific invoice.
