  • Me and my fiance are in the throws of buying a flat (a three bedroom ground floor purpose built maisonette inHitchin with share of freehold). During our search, we were always looking at flats that had at least eighty five years outstanding. We found a flat we liked and the selling agent assured that the lease term was not an issue. Today our advised us the lease only has 74 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?

Can you recommend a good who specialises in lease extensions. Preferably someone in Hitchin area?
