Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Please supply a car parking plan. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Charmouth I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Charmouth suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
