1. your lawyer will need to check the length of time still left on the lease as almost all mortgage providers do not give a mortgage for a leasehold property that only has under 60 years left on them.
2. your leasehold conveyancer must check the other terms, conditions and requirement in the lease that could restrict the use, satisfaction and futureimprovement of the home.
It’s important to note that conveyancing for a leasehold property almost always is more expensive than a freehold sale (for more info see: leasehold conveyancing).
Property Transfer Insurance
Conveyancers use Indemnity insurance during conveyancing transactions to cover any kind of legal defect with the property that can not just be resolved swiftly, or can’t be fixed at all. Conveyancing indemnity insurance protects the buyer and the mortgage lender in the event of any decrease in value on the property as a result of any kind of defect or issues. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ (CML) handbook for conveyancers says: “You must effect an indemnity insurance policy whenever the Lenders’ Handbook identifies that this is an acceptable or required course to us to ensure that the property has a good and marketable title at completion.”
