I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Brecon Beacons I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Brecon Beacons suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
