I am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Burnage I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Burnage in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

If you need a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you.
