The only way is down when it comes to Little Hulton lease terms. Little Hulton properties that have a residual term shorter than 80 years will drop in market price even faster, and the cost to extend your lease will increase.
Leasehold properties in Little Hulton with over 100 years left on the lease are often referred to as ‘virtual freehold’. This is where the lease value the same as a freehold interest in your home. In such situations there is often little to be gained by purchasing the reversionary interest unless savings on ground rent and maintenance charges warrant it.

Last Summer we were contacted by Dr H Murphy , who owned a recently refurbished apartment in Little Hulton in April 2010. We are asked if we could approximate the compensation to the landlord would likely be for a 90 year lease extension. Comparative properties in Little Hulton with 100 year plus lease were valued around £250,000. The average amount of ground rent was £50 collected yearly. The lease came to a finish in 2096. Given that there were 70 years outstanding we approximated the compensation to the landlord for the lease extension to be between £9,500 and £11,000 plus expenses.
