Cherry Willingham residential property held on a long lease is a depreciating asset because a leaseholder only owns the property for a period of years.
It is generally accepted that a residential leasehold with in excess of one hundred years remaining is worth roughly the same as a freehold. Where an additional 90 years added to any lease with more than 45 years remaining, the property will be equivalent in value to a freehold for many years ahead.

In 2014 Austin, started to get near to the eighty-year mark with the lease on his one bedroom flat in Cherry Willingham. In buying his flat two decades ago, the length of the lease was of minimal interest. Fortunately, he realised he needed to take action soon on a lease extension. Austin was able to extend his lease just under the wire last April. Austin and the landlord ultimately agreed on the final figure of £5,500 . If the lease had dropped below 80 years, the price would have increased by a minimum £900.
Last Autumn we were e-mailed by Mr and Mrs. E Sánchez , who bought a garden flat in Cherry Willingham in July 2000. The dilemma was if we could shed any light on how much (roughly) premium would be for a ninety year lease extension. Identical residencies in Cherry Willingham with 100 year plus lease were valued about £275,000. The average ground rent payable was £65 invoiced annually. The lease lapsed in 2094. Taking into account 68 years remaining we calculated the premium to the landlord to extend the lease to be between £13,300 and £15,400 not including fees.
Mr and Mrs. O Moore completed a first floor apartment in Cherry Willingham in September 2005. The question was if we could estimate the price could be for a ninety year lease extension. Comparative premises in Cherry Willingham with a long lease were worth £213,600. The mid-range ground rent payable was £60 collected annually. The lease terminated in 2083. Having 57 years as a residual term we estimated the compensation to the freeholder to extend the lease to be within £30,400 and £35,200 not including expenses.
