I will soon view a two bedroom maisonette, although not exactly my perfect property it has enough positives to suit me very well for my present circumstances. However after obtaining a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has fivety eight years residual lease term on the lease. It is also a repossession so I'm assuming that the vendor will not be interested in doing a lease extension. My main concern is would the short lease make it difficult to secure a mortgage?

I am concerned that my daughter might have had the wool pulled over her eyes. She submitted an offer on a two bedroom first floor purpose built maisonette in March, where the lease is around seventy eight years but she was told by the estate agents that the vendor had extended it to 99 years. Only now has she been advised the seller was waiting for her to retain solicitors prior to commencing with the lease extension. Sounds underhand, also it will take a while to sort it all out. What do you think?
