I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Oakdale 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 Oakdale suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
