I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Kidbrooke I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Kidbrooke in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
My parents are unable to locate their Kidbrooke property on the HM Land Registry site. They recall that sixty years ago when they purchased the property there were complications regarding the post code not being recognised in some systems.
Almost all properties in Kidbrooke should be revealed. Have you attempted a search to simply the postcode. Normally it will identify all the properties within that postcode. Assuming the property is recorded it will show up with a title number. If they bought 48 years ago it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The property could still be revealed but with the title number shown 'na'. In this scenario you will need to track down the original title papers which could be with your parent’s bank.
