Why you should commence your Crymych lease extension

Main reasons to commence your Crymych lease extension today:

Increase your lease and increase your Crymych property value

Owning a apartment usually means owning a lease of the property, which has a set term of years. This lease will ordinarily be granted for a prescribed period of time , ordinarily 99 or 125 years, although we have seen longer and shorter terms in Crymych. Inevitably, the period of lease left shortens as time goes by. This is often ignored and only becomes a problem when the property has to be disposed of or refinanced. The shorter the lease the less it is worth and the more expensive it will be to procure a lease extension. Qualifying leaseholders in Crymych have the right to extend the lease for an additional 90 years under the 1993 Leasehold Reform Act. Do give due attention before putting off your Crymych lease extension. Holding off that expense now simply increases the price you will eventually incur for a lease extension

Crymych property with a lease extension is almost the same value as a freehold

Leasehold properties in Crymych with in excess of one hundred years left on the lease are often regarded as a ‘virtual freehold’. This is where the lease is worth the same as a freehold interest in your property. In such situations there is often little to be gained by purchasing the freehold unless savings on ground rent and maintenance charges merit it.

Mortgage lenders will not finance a property on a short lease

Lenders are tightening their criteria and many now want flats to have at least 60 if not 70 years remaining once the mortgage has expired. As plenty of flats in Crymych were created in the fifties, sixties and seventies this means many now require lease extensions if they wish to obtain a mortgage.
