Llanbedrgoch residential property held on a long lease is a wasting asset because a leaseholder merely owns the property for a set term.
It is conventional wisdom that a property with in excess of one hundred years unexpired lease term is worth approximately the same as a freehold. Where an further ninety years added to any lease with more than 45 years left, the residence will be equivalent in value to a freehold for many years in the future.

Last October Archie, came precariously near to the eighty-year mark with the lease on his one bedroom apartment in Llanbedrgoch. In buying his property two decades ago, the unexpired term was of minimal relevance. by good luck, he became aware that he would imminently be paying an escalated premium for a lease extension. Archie was able to extend his lease at the eleventh hour in May. Archie and the freeholder subsequently agreed on a premium of £6,000 . If the lease had gone lower than 80 years, the figure would have escalated by at least £875.
Last month we were called by Mr and Mrs. M Morel , who owned a first floor flat in Llanbedrgoch in January 2001. The dilemma was if we could shed any light on how much (approximately) compensation to the landlord would likely be to prolong the lease by an additional years. Identical premises in Llanbedrgoch with 100 year plus lease were worth £198,800. The mid-range ground rent payable was £55 collected quarterly. The lease came to a finish in 2081. Having 55 years unexpired we estimated the compensation to the freeholder for the lease extension to be between £33,300 and £38,400 not including expenses.
Ms W Norbert acquired a basement flat in Llanbedrgoch in November 2005. We are asked if we could shed any light on how much (approximately) premium would likely be for a ninety year lease extension. Comparative properties in Llanbedrgoch with an extended lease were in the region of £295,000. The average amount of ground rent was £50 invoiced monthly. The lease finished on 6 September 2101. Taking into account 75 years as a residual term we calculated the premium to the landlord for the lease extension to be between £8,600 and £9,800 exclusive of expenses.
