The nearer a residential lease in Chellaston nears to zero years unexpired, the more it reduces the value of the property. If the lease has, over 99 years to run then this decrease may be negligible however there will become a stage when a lease has fewer than eighty years unexpired as part of the premium you will incur is what is known as a marriage value. This could increase sharply the cost. It is the main rational as to why you should extend the lease sooner as opposed to later. Most flat owners in Chellaston will qualify for this right; that being said a conveyancer should be able to confirm if you qualify for a lease extension. In certain situations you may not qualify, the most common reason being that you have owned the property for under two years.

Kyle owned a studio apartment in Chellaston being marketed with a lease of a few days over 61 years left. Kyle informally contacted his freeholder a well known London-based freehold company and enquired on a premium to extend the lease. The landlord indicated a willingness to grant an extension taking the lease to 125 years on the basis of a rise in the rent to £100 per annum. Ordinarily, ground rent would not be due on a lease extension were Kyle to exercise his statutory right. Kyle procured expert legal guidance and was able to make a more informed judgement and handle with the matter and sell the flat.
Mr and Mrs. B Torres purchased a first floor flat in Chellaston in July 2004. The dilemma was if we could estimate the premium would likely be to extend the lease by a further 90 years. Comparative properties in Chellaston with an extended lease were in the region of £290,000. The average amount of ground rent was £60 collected yearly. The lease ended on 24 May 2106. Having 80 years unexpired we approximated the compensation to the freeholder to extend the lease to be between £13,300 and £15,400 not including professional charges.
