If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Oxfordshire I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Oxfordshire in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

Should you need a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
