Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Gotham I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease.

If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you.

One option is to try and accept a smaller deposit. Most property owners will agree to a smaller deposit or even no deposit for a first time buyer or 100% mortgage. Be aware though that if you fail to complete you will still need to hand over a minimum of 10% of the purchase price regardless of how much deposit was agreed.

You can also agree a simultaneous exchange and completion as no deposit is required for this however neither party will be tied in until completion actually takes place and it can be risky if sellers change their mind at the last minute
