I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Lower Clapton I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Lower Clapton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
