I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in East Dean I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in East Dean suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
