Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Llanelli I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Llanelli suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 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 current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
