Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Levenshulme I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Levenshulme suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
If you require a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

My wife and I hope to buy our first house in Levenshulme. Conveyancing practitioner already selected. The financial consultant suggested that a survey is not appropriate as the property was only constructed in 2002.
At the very least you should have a Home Buyer's Report. Given the property was constructed more than a decade ago the property will be without a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be sufficient. They will highlight any obvious issues and recommend further investigation if appropriate. Where there are any signs of material issues obtain a comprehensive structural survey.
