Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Grasmere I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease.

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
