Main reasons to commence your Ferryside lease extension today:
</h3>
<h4>
Increase your lease and increase your <a href="http://www.lendermonitor.com/conveyancing/loc/ferryside">Ferryside</a> property value </h4>
<p> The closer a residential lease in Ferryside nears to zero years unexpired, the more it reduces the value of the property. If the residual term has, over 100 years remaining then this decrease may be of little impact that being said there will become a point in time when a lease has under than 80 years left as part of the premium you will incur is what is known as a marriage value. This could be significant. It is the main logic behind why you should extend the lease without delay. The majority of flat owners in Ferryside will qualify for this right; that being said a conveyancing solicitor will be able to confirm whether you are eligible for a lease extension. In certain situations you may not qualify, the most frequent reason being that you have owned the property for less than two years.
<h4>Ferryside property with a lease extension is almost the same value as a freehold</h4>
<p> It is conventional wisdom that a property with in excess of one hundred years unexpired lease term is worth roughly the equivalent as a freehold. Where an additional 90 years added to any lease with more than 35 years remaining, the residence will be equivalent in value to a freehold for many years ahead.
<h4>Lenders may not loan monies on a short lease</h4> Mortgage Lenders differ in their lending criteria. Some draw the line at 75 years left on the lease; others may be content with anything with more than 70 years. With less than sixty years, it may be problematic to get a mortgage in the first place.

Ferryside Lease Extension Example Cases:
</h4>
<h5> Jason, Ferryside, Ammanford</h5>
<p> Last October Jason, came dangerously near to the 80-year threshold with the lease on his leasehold apartment in Ferryside. In buying his home 18 years previously, the length of the lease was of no importance. Fortunately, he recognised he needed to take action soon on Extending the lease. Jason extended the lease just ahead of time last July. Jason and the freeholder via the management company subsequently settled on a premium of £5,000 . If he not met the deadline, the premium would have increased by at least £1,000.
<h5>Ferryside case:</h5>
<p>
Last Christmas we were contacted by Mr and Mrs. I Michel , who
owned a one bedroom apartment in Ferryside in June 2006. The dilemma was if we could estimate the premium would be for a ninety year lease extension. Similar homes in Ferryside with an extended lease were worth £206,200. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £60 invoiced monthly. The lease elapsed in 2082. Given that there were 56 years remaining we approximated the compensation to the freeholder for the lease extension to be within £32,300 and £37,400 exclusive of expenses.
<h5>Ferryside case:</h5>
<p>
Last Spring we were e-mailed by Mr and Mrs. A Phillips , who
purchased a one bedroom flat in Ferryside in June 2012. The dilemma was if we could shed any light on how much (approximately) compensation to the landlord would be for a 90 year lease extension. Identical residencies in Ferryside with a long lease were valued about £300,000. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £50 invoiced yearly. The lease concluded in 2102. Taking into account 76 years outstanding we calculated the premium to the landlord for the lease extension to be within £8,600 and £9,800 exclusive of legals.
