Recently asked questions relating to Anerley Lease Extensions

  • I'm intending to make an offer on a house in Anerley but I'm concerned about it being leasehold. Do you know what title absolute means and is this regarding the lease? Also, we have asked to see a copy of the lease but the homeowner said they might not have it. We are worried about restrictions, and dont know what to do. We have also been approved for the mortgage but the lender doesn't know its leasehold. Do houses qualify for lease extension? Will this affect Aldermore giving us the mortgage now?
  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very interested but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 798 years balance left so a lease extension is not a concern. We didn't know what this meant but the internet suggests we wouldn't own the land or property, just the lease to live there. Is this correct? We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without the house being ours. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
