I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Mawsley I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Mawsley for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will almost definitely need a lease extension sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of how much this would cost.
