  • We have seen a house for sale for £195k and we are very interested but we've just discovered that it is leasehold. There are 928 years unexpired so a lease extension is not an issue.

We wouldn't want to pay a mortgage for 25 years without owning the property. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
