Top reasons for Lixwm lease extension


Why you should commence your Lixwm lease extension today:

Increase your lease and increase your Lixwm property value

The nearer a residential lease in Lixwm gets to zero years unexpired, the more it reduces the value of the property. Where the residual term has, over 125 years remaining then this decrease may be of little impact that being said there will become a point in time when a lease has fewer than eighty 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 consider extending sooner rather than later. Many flat owners in Lixwm will meet the qualifying criteria; nevertheless a conveyancing solicitor will be able to confirm if you qualify to extend your lease. In certain situations you may not qualify, the most common reason being that you have owned the property for under two years.

An extended lease is almost the same value as a freehold

It is generally considered that a property with in excess of one hundred years unexpired lease term is worth roughly the equivalent as a freehold. Where an additional ninety years added to all but the shortest lease, the residence will be equivalent in value to a freehold for many years in the future.

Mortgage lenders may decide not to loan monies on a short lease

The propensity since 2008 has been for mortgage companies to tighten lending criteria generally - this has extended to the types of security over which the home loan is to be granted. This has meant the minimum number of years remaining under the lease required by mortgage companies has increased. Historically banks would lend on a lease with twenty years plus the term of the loan - typically 50 year leases but those requirements evolved by the requirement for lengthy leases - many use a minimum term of 75 years as standard.

Lixwm case:

Last month we were contacted by Mr and Mrs. Y Clark , who bought a first floor apartment in Lixwm in April 2011. We are asked if we could approximate the premium would likely be to prolong the lease by a further 90 years. Identical homes in Lixwm with an extended lease were valued about £220,400. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £45 invoiced per annum. The lease finished on 6 October 2090. Having 64 years as a residual term we calculated the compensation to the landlord for the lease extension to be between £16,200 and £18,600 not including professional charges.

Lixwm case:

Mr Thomas Morel acquired a one bedroom apartment in Lixwm in June 2001. We are asked if we could shed any light on how much (roughly) price could be for a 90 year lease extension. Identical homes in Lixwm with a long lease were valued about £270,000. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £55 billed quarterly. The lease lapsed in 2101. Taking into account 75 years as a residual term we approximated the compensation to the freeholder for the lease extension to be within £9,500 and £11,000 exclusive of expenses.
