However after downloading a copy of the title I've learnt that it only has sixety years left on the lease.

  • I am a FTB of a leasehold flat in Avery Hill. The lease has only seventy two years balance left and ground rent is £50.

I have read this is achievable but will it be very time costly to the seller? Unfortunately it’s the case of an missing freeholder, so I am not sure how this will play out.
