I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Godshill I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Godshill suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
