Main reasons to start your Beaworthy lease extension


Main reasons to commence your Beaworthy lease extension today:

A Beaworthy lease depreciates with the years remaining on the lease.

The basic rule is, all other things holding equal, the shorter the lease the more costly the premium. Qualifying leaseholders in Beaworthy can extend the lease for an additional ninety years in accordance with Leasehold Reform legislation. Please think carefully before delaying your Beaworthy lease extension. Postponing that expense now simply increases the premium you will eventually be required to pay for a lease extension.

An extended lease has roughly the same value as a freehold

Leasehold properties in Beaworthy with over 100 years outstanding on the lease are sometimes referred to as ‘virtual freehold’. This is where the lease is worth the same as a freehold interest in your home. In such situations there is often little upside in buying the reversionary interest unless savings on ground rent and maintenance charges merit it.

Lending institutions will not finance a property on a short lease

Banks and building societies are really clamping down as regards to homes in Beaworthy with short leases. For example you may find that their lending requirements are stricter and that they adjust interest rates depending on the unexpired lease term. Some may even refrain from lending completely, so if you needed to sell, your remaining options would be to find a cash buyer, or try your luck at auction thus restricting your market.

Beaworthy case:

Mr and Mrs. R Michel completed a purpose-built apartment in Beaworthy in September 1995. The dilemma was if we could approximate the price would likely be for a 90 year lease extension. Comparative premises in Beaworthy with 100 year plus lease were worth £193,400. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £65 billed quarterly. The lease elapsed in 2085. Given that there were 59 years remaining we approximated the compensation to the freeholder for the lease extension to be between £21,900 and £25,200 not including costs.

Ms Lydia Anderson completed a basement apartment in Beaworthy in April 2012.
