I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Wanstead I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Wanstead in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could 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 with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
