Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Cherry Burton I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Cherry Burton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may 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 matter.
