回複：還是房子問題，新手求教

1. Many people won't buy if it's leasehold but if there are more than 100 years lease left, that would be fine for most people. The bank won't lend the money if the lease is less than certain number of years. 50 is more than enough. Even when the lease runs out, the landlord can not force you to move.
2. You will need a solicitor. The estate agency normally have solicitors they can recommend. The solicitor will ask for 10% deposit if you are a first time buyer. The percentage might change depending on the situation. You do still need to chase the agent and the solicitor because they are not always effecient.
3. You will see less new houses go on the market from May so now is the best time. It may sound useless that if you see something you like, don't wait but if you're not sure, then wait, but Sometimes it's like a gamble.
