Material Information Applicable In All Circumstances.

The Ground Rent for the Property will, from 1st January 2031, be in excess of £250 and therefore, when this occurs, the Lease could then qualify as an Assured Tenancy under the Housing Act 1988. The Landlord would then have the right to seek possession of the property in certain circumstances, one of which is the non-payment of Ground Rent within 40 days. Although landlords may struggle in practice to obtain possession, it may not meet mortgage lender’s requirements (dependent on individual mortgage lender requirements). Therefore if the property is being purchased with a mortgage, the Vendor will provide an Indemnity Policy, which we’re advised is usually accepted. However, this provides protection for the Lender only. We therefore recommend that all interested parties take suitable Legal and Lender advice prior to a commitment to purchase.
