The closer a residential lease in Parkwood Springs gets to zero years unexpired, the the greater the reduction in the value of the property. Where the lease has, over 99 years to run then this decrease may be negligible however there will become a stage when a lease has fewer than eighty years remaining as part of the premium you will incur is what is termed as a marriage value. This could increase markedly the cost. It is the primary logic behind why you should consider extending sooner as opposed to later. Many flat owners in Parkwood Springs will qualify for this right; nevertheless a conveyancer should be able to confirm whether you are eligible to extend your lease. In certain situations you may not qualify, the most common reason being that you have not been the owner of the property for two years.
It is generally considered that a property with over one hundred years unexpired lease term is worth roughly the equivalent as a freehold. Where an further ninety years added to any lease with more than 35 years left, the residence will be worth the same as a freehold for many years in the future.

In 2014 Zachary, came critically near to the 80-year mark with the lease on his basement flat in Parkwood Springs. In buying his home two decades ago, the unexpired term was of minimal concern. Thankfully, it dawned on him that he needed to take action soon on a lease extension. Zachary extended the lease just in the nick of time last August. Zachary and the freeholder via the managing agents eventually settled on the final figure of £6,000 . If he failed to meet the deadline, the price would have gone up by a minimum £1,150.
Last Spring we were contacted by Mr and Mrs. K Young , who completed a basement apartment in Parkwood Springs in March 2002. The question was if we could shed any light on how much (roughly) premium could be for a 90 year lease extension. Identical residencies in Parkwood Springs with 100 year plus lease were in the region of £290,000. The average amount of ground rent was £45 billed quarterly. The lease lapsed in 2099. Having 73 years unexpired we approximated the premium to the freeholder for the lease extension to be within £8,600 and £9,800 plus expenses.
In 2011 we were approached by Mr B Leroy who, having owned a newly refurbished flat in Parkwood Springs in August 2002.

Given that there were 62 years left we approximated the premium to the landlord for the lease extension to be within £21,900 and £25,200 not including costs.
