I'm not sure I follow - if you rent you don't pay ground rent. If you are a leaseholder you pay ground rent to the land owner to have your home ( that you own ) on their land. If you're a leaseholder then you just sell your property - no landlord involved.

If I remember rightly wasn't it for something ridiculous like 199 years and a pound a year?

I'm not aware it is difficult. My brother has brought quite a few on mortgage without issue.

Indeed. How they ever got away with it amazes me. The story of the ground rent being £10k a year by 2060 is disgusting. I get leasehold on properties that share land but for a house ??
