I am attracted to a couple of apartments in Burwash which have about forty five years left on the leases. should I be concerned?

There are no two ways about it. A leasehold flat in Burwash is a deteriorating asset as a result of the shortening lease. The closer the lease gets to zero years unexpired, the more it adversely affects the value of the premises. For most purchasers and banks, leases with under eighty years become less and less marketable. On a more upbeat note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the premises for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of premises with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Burwash conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. More often than not it is possible to negotiate informally with the freeholder to extend the lease. You may find he or she is happy to negotiate informally and willing to consider your offer straight off, without having to involve anyone else. This will save you time and money and it could help you reach a lower price on the lease. You need to ensure that the agreed terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.

For instance it is fairly common in Burwash leases that pets are not allowed in in a block in Burwash.

The lawyers carrying out our conveyancing in Burwash has sent papers to review that reveal that the property is unregistered with epitome documents. Why is the property not yet recorded at HMLR?

It is a rare occurrence indeed to find premises in Burwash not to be registered. An 'epitome' is basically a dossier of photocopies of documents affecting an unregistered title. Plenty of Burwash conveyancing solicitors will be familiar with this type of conveyancing but where uncertainty reigns the prevailing advice presently seems to be for the current owners to deal with the registration formalities first and thereafter deal with the transfer to the buyer - this will have a domino effect to cause a protracted conveyancing.
