Throughout our search, we were always looking at apartments that had at least 84 years unexpired. We found a apartment we liked and the selling agent assured that the lease was long albeit not specifying a number. Yesterday our told us the lease only has 60 years and therefore requires a lease extension. Do we run away, or do we lower our offer by the estimated difference in value resulting from the short lease term setting aside that money to cover the lease extension?
