1. the conveyancer will need to check out the duration of the unexpired term left on the leasehold contract because many mortgage lenders will not give a mortgage if a lease that has less than 60 years left on them.

2. your leasehold conveyancer or solicitor must check out the other conditions and requirement in the lease agreement that might restrict the use, enjoyment and furtherdevelopment of the leasehold home.

Bare in mind that conveyancing fees on a leasehold property is often more expensive than on a standard sale (for more info see: leasehold conveyancing).

About Richmond

Richmond is a suburban[2] town in southwest London, 8.2 miles (13.2 km) west-southwest of Charing Cross. The town is on a meander of the River Thames, with a large number of parks and open spaces, including Richmond Park, and many protected conservation areas,[3] which include much of Richmond Hill.[4] A specific Act of Parliament protects the scenic view of the River Thames from Richmond.[5]

Richmond was founded following Henry VII’s building of Richmond Palace in the 16th century, from which the town derives its name. (The Palace itself was named after Henry’s earldom of Richmond, North Yorkshire.) During this era the town and palace were particularly associated with Elizabeth I, who spent her last days here. During the 18th century Richmond Bridge was completed and many Georgian terraces were built, particularly around Richmond Green and on Richmond Hill. These remain well preserved and many have listed building architectural or heritage status. The opening of the railway station in 1846 was a significant event in the absorption of the town into a rapidly expanding London.
