She submitted an offer on a ground floor flat in Buckfastleigh, where the lease is nearly 57 years but she was told by the selling agents that the homeowner had extended it to 125 years. Only now has she been informed the homeowner was waiting for her to retain lawyers before commencing with the lease extension. Seems unscrupulous, also it may take months to sort it all out. Am I reading too much into it?
