I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one close by in Kempston I like with a park and railway links nearby, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Kempston in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can 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 solicitor concerning this.

My aunt purchased her house in Kempston in 2008. She has been married, widowed and in recent months got remarried. She intends to sell the house next moths. I think she will simply be need to supply copies of the marriage certificates to the conveyancer however she is worried it could delay the sale of the property. Is it worth updating the title details for the property?
It is not absolutely necessary to update the title for the property as long as you have the proof required to show how the name change occurred.
The buyer’s conveyancing practitioner will examine the land registry entries and requisition evidence to establish the change of name e.g. marriage certificates.
