I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Newcastle upon Tyne I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Newcastle upon Tyne suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign 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 concerning this.
