Anlaby leases on residential deteriorating in value. if your lease has about ninety years left, you should start thinking about a lease extension. Eighty years is a significant number: when the remaining term of a lease dips below this level then you begin paying an additional element called marriage value. Flat owners in Anlaby will mostly be legally entitled to a lease extension; however it’s a good idea to check with a conveyancing solicitor to confirm your eligibility. In certain cases you may not be entitled. There are also strict deadlines and procedures to follow once the process is triggered so it’s wise to be guided by a conveyancing solicitor during the process.
It is conventional wisdom that a property with over 100 years unexpired lease term is worth roughly the same as a freehold. Where an additional 90 years added to all but the shortest lease, the property will be worth the same as a freehold for many years in the future.

Last month we were approach by Dr U Martin , who moved into a newly refurbished flat in Anlaby in March 1995. We are asked if we could shed any light on how much (roughly) price would likely be to extend the lease by 90 years. Comparable premises in Anlaby with an extended lease were valued around £174,200. The mid-range ground rent payable was £55 invoiced every twelve months. The lease ran out in 2077. Given that there were 51 years outstanding we calculated the compensation to the landlord for the lease extension to be within £31,400 and £36,200 plus professional charges.
