Chances are that if you own a flat in Nannerch you actually own a long leasehold interest over your property
Leasehold premises in Nannerch with more than 100 years remaining on the lease are often regarded as a ‘virtual freehold’. This is where the lease value the same as a freehold interest in your home. In such situations there is often little to be gained by buying the freehold unless savings on ground rent and service charges justify it.

Trailing lengthy discussions with the landlord of her garden flat in Nannerch, Kelsey started the lease extension process just as the lease was nearing the critical eighty-year mark. The lease extension was concluded in November 2009. The freeholder’s fees were kept to an absolute minimum.
In 2012 we were e-mailed by Mr J Murphy who, having took over the lease of a newly refurbished flat in Nannerch in July 2010. We are asked if we could approximate the compensation to the landlord could be to extend the lease by 90 years. Comparative properties in Nannerch with 100 year plus lease were in the region of £257,800. The average amount of ground rent was £65 billed every twelve months. The lease terminated in 2091. Considering the 65 years unexpired we approximated the premium to the freeholder for the lease extension to be between £18,100 and £20,800 exclusive of expenses.
Last month we were contacted by Mr and Mrs. E Collins , who was assigned a lease of a purpose-built apartment in Nannerch in April 2007.
