I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Ash I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Ash suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
