Two years ago Jake, started to get close to the 80-year threshold with the lease on his purpose- built flat in Euxton. Having bought his property 18 years previously, the lease term was of little interest. by good luck, he became aware that he would soon be paying an inflated amount for Extending the lease. Jake extended the lease at the eleventh hour last March. Jake and the landlord who owned the flat above ultimately settled on an amount of £5,000 . If he had missed the deadline, the premium would have increased by at least £900.
Mr and Mrs. M Green owned a purpose-built flat in Euxton in May 2009. We are asked if we could estimate the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease. Identical properties in Euxton with 100 year plus lease were worth £171,800. The average ground rent payable was £55 invoiced annually. The lease finished on 27 August 2076. Taking into account 50 years unexpired we estimated the compensation to the landlord for the lease extension to be within £33,300 and £38,400 exclusive of legals.
