  • We are in the throws of buying a property (a ground floor flat located inCanford Heath with share of freehold). Throughout our search, we were always looking at properties that had at least 83 years left on the lease. We found a apartment we liked and the selling agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. Today our told us the lease only has fivety five years and therefore needs a lease extension. Should we run away, or should 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?
