I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Sandringham I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Sandringham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
