I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Eye I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Eye for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my business offices in Eye and how can your lawyers assist?

The particular law that you refer to gives protection to business leaseholders, giving them the right to make a request to court for a renewal lease and continue in occupation at the end of an expired lease. There are limited grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.
