Important lease and area notes: lease documentation shows 125 years from 05/04/1992 (which implies c.92 years remaining), but you have been advised there are only 62 years left — this inconsistency is material. Flats with significantly under-70-year leases often face mortgage lender restrictions and may be difficult to finance without a lease extension. The property sits in a very deprived area with a high crime index, which will affect resale values and investor appeal.
Presented as a low-upkeep flat in a convenient town-centre location, this property is best for buyers able to proceed in cash or who will investigate lease length and financing options first. Any purchaser should confirm the accurate lease term, lender acceptability, and be comfortable with the neighbourhood profile before committing.
