Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Oakwood I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease.

If you require a home loan that many years may be problematic. Discount 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 a minimum of 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 existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
