Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted.

An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
