I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two maisonettes in Shrewton both have in the region of 50 years remaining on the lease term. should I be concerned?

There are no two ways about it. A leasehold flat in Shrewton is a wasting asset as a result of the reducing lease term. The nearer the lease gets to zero years unexpired, the more it adversely affects the salability of the premises. The majority of buyers and banks, leases with less than 75 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 a property 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 Shrewton 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. They may agree to a smaller lump sum and an increase in the ground rent, but to shorter extension terms in return. 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.

Shrewton Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Examples of Queries Prior to Purchasing

The majority of Shrewton leasehold properties will be liable to pay a service bill for maintenance of the block invoiced by the landlord. Where you purchase the property you will have to pay this liability, normally periodically accross the year. This may differ from two or three hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for buildings with lifts and large common areas. In all probability there will be a ground rent for you to pay yearly, this is usually not a large sum, say around £25-£75 but you need to check as occasionally it could be prohibitively expensive. How much is the yearly maintenance fee and ground rent? Best to be warned whether changing the roof or some other major work is anticipated to be shared amongst the tenants and will materially increase the the service charges or require a one time invoice.
