Throughout our search, we were always looking at apartments that had at least 83 years left on the lease. We identified a apartment we fell in love with and the selling agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. This morning our conveyancing practitioners informed us the lease only has sixety one years and therefore needs a lease extension. Should we walk 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?
