Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Killamarsh I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Killamarsh for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
