If the number of years remaining falls under eighty years, you will end up paying 50% of the property's 'marriage value' on top of the usual cost of the lease extension to the landlord. The marriage fee is the amount of extra value that a lease extension will add the property Most leasehold owners in Abertridwr will be able to extend under the legislation; however a conveyancer will be able to clarify if you qualify for an extension.

An extended lease is almost the same value as a freehold

It is conventional wisdom that a residential leasehold with over one hundred years remaining is worth roughly the equivalent as a freehold. Where an further 90 years added to any lease with more than 30 years left, the property will be equivalent in value to a freehold for many years in the future.
