I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Handforth I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease.

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
