Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Acklam I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Acklam for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent told us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we appoint the agent's chosen lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Acklam

We suspect that the owner is not behind this request. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Contact the vendors directly and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to use your preferred Acklam conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthose that will give their estate agent a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.
