Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Kingsthorpe I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Kingsthorpe for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan that many years will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
At last I have had an offer on an maisonette in Kingsthorpe accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have submitted an offer on a flat, although it’s not yet tied up, and has viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing lawyer in Kingsthorpe. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Kent Reliance started with Kent Reliance?
It is usual to have concerns where there is an associated chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Kingsthorpe conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Kent Reliance approved list. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of home buyers would apply for a home loan with Kent Reliance and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to proceed with the conveyancing in Kingsthorpe.
