I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Torpoint I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Torpoint for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension 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 speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
