The rule of thumb is, all other factors being equal, the shorter the lease the more costly the premium. Qualifying leaseholders in Hoylake may extend the lease for an additional 90 years under legislation. Please give careful consideration before delaying your Hoylake lease extension. Postponing that expense today simply increases the amount you will eventually have to pay for a lease extension.
It is generally considered that a residential leasehold with more than 100 years unexpired lease term is worth approximately the equivalent as a freehold. Where an further ninety years added to any lease with more than 30 years unexpired, the residence will be equivalent in value to a freehold for decades to come.

Half a year ago Cameron, came very near to the eighty-year mark with the lease on his first floor flat in Hoylake. Having purchased his home two decades ago, the unexpired term was of minimal importance. by good luck, he noticed he would soon be paying an inflated amount for a lease extension. Cameron arranged for a lease extension at the eleventh hour last June. Cameron and the landlord who owned the flat above eventually settled on the final figure of £5,500 . If the lease had slid below eighty years, the price would have increased by a minimum £1,100.
Ms J Reed acquired a purpose-built apartment in Hoylake in April 1996. The dilemma was if we could estimate the premium would likely be for a ninety year lease extension. Comparative residencies in Hoylake with an extended lease were valued about £200,000. The mid-range ground rent payable was £50 invoiced yearly. The lease finished on 28 March 2103. Given that there were 77 years outstanding we approximated the compensation to the landlord to extend the lease to be between £8,600 and £9,800 exclusive of fees.
Last month we were e-mailed by Mr and Mrs. K Brooks , who bought a studio flat in Hoylake in November 1995. The question was if we could shed any light on how much (approximately) price would be for a ninety year extension to my lease. Comparable homes in Hoylake with an extended lease were in the region of £260,200. The mid-range ground rent payable was £65 billed annually. The lease termination date was in 2092. Given that there were 66 years as a residual term we estimated the premium to the landlord to extend the lease to be within £16,200 and £18,600 not including fees.
