The basic rule is, all other things holding equal, the shorter the lease the more expensive the premium. Qualifying leaseholders in Parbold can extend the lease for an additional 90 years in accordance with legislation. Do give careful consideration before delaying your Parbold lease extension. Postponing that expense now simply increases the premium you will ultimately be required to pay for a lease extension.
It is conventional wisdom that a residential leasehold with over 100 years remaining is worth roughly the same as a freehold. Where an further 90 years added to all but the shortest lease, the property will be worth the same as a freehold for decades to come.

In 2014 Cameron, started to get near to the eighty-year threshold with the lease on his garden apartment in Parbold. In buying his property twenty years ago, the lease term was of little relevance. Thankfully, it dawned on him that he would imminently be paying an inflated amount for a lease extension. Cameron extended the lease just under the wire in July. Cameron and the freeholder via the managing agents ultimately settled on a premium of £6,000 . If he failed to meet the deadline, the premium would have gone up by at least £1,000.
Last Autumn we were approach by Ms Bethan André , who completed a one bedroom flat in Parbold in November 2002. The dilemma was if we could estimate the compensation to the landlord would be for a 90 year extension to my lease. Comparative residencies in Parbold with 100 year plus lease were valued around £210,000. The average amount of ground rent was £50 invoiced every twelve months. The lease came to a finish on 18 June 2106. Considering the 80 years unexpired we estimated the compensation to the landlord for the lease extension to be between £8,600 and £9,800 exclusive of fees.
In 2012 we were phoned by Mr and Mrs. E Bell who, having owned a garden flat in Parbold in September 2010. We are asked if we could shed any light on how much (roughly) compensation to the landlord would likely be for a 90 year extension to my lease. Comparative premises in Parbold with an extended lease were in the region of £280,000. The average amount of ground rent was £45 collected annually. The lease expiry date was in 2095. Having 69 years outstanding we estimated the compensation to the landlord to extend the lease to be within £12,400 and £14,200 exclusive of fees.
