I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Cippenham I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Cippenham suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. Given the premises was constructed over a decade ago the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report could suffice. They will highlight any obvious problems and suggest additional investigation where appropriate. If there are any indications of problems get a comprehensive structural survey.
