The deeds to our property are lost. The lawyers who conducted the conveyancing in Acrefair 5 years ago are no longer around. Will I be able to sell the house?
As long as the title is registered the information relating to your ownership will be retained by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is easy to carry out a search at the Land Registry, locate your house and order current copies of the property title for less than a fiver. Where the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally retain a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for a small fee.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Acrefair I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Acrefair in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
