Assuming the title is registered the details of your ownership will be retained by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is possible to carry out a search at the Land Registry, find your property and obtain up to date copies of the property title for less than a fiver. Where the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually hold a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for twenty pounds.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in St George I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in St George in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
