Why you should commence your Rhosesmor lease extension

Top reasons for lease extension now:

A Rhosesmor lease depreciates with the years remaining on the lease.

Owning a apartment usually means owning a lease of the property, which has a finite term of years. The lease will normally be granted for a set period of time , usually 99 or 125 years, although we have seen longer and shorter terms in Rhosesmor. Inevitably, the period of lease left reduces as time goes by. This is often overlooked and only becomes a problem when the flat or house has to be disposed of or re-mortgaged. The shorter the lease the less it is worth and the more it will cost to extend the lease. Eligible leaseholders in Rhosesmor have the right to extend the lease for a further 90 years under legislation. You should give due deliberation before putting off your Rhosesmor lease extension. Putting off that expense now only increases the price you will ultimately incur to extend your lease

Rhosesmor property with a lease extension has roughly the same value as a freehold

Leasehold residencies in Rhosesmor with over one hundred years left on the lease are sometimes 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 upside in purchasing the freehold unless savings on ground rent and estate charges merit it.

Banks and Building Societies may not grant a mortgage with a short lease

Nearly all mortgage lenders require a lengthy amount of time remaining on any leasehold property before they will consider it as adequate security. Even if you don't need a mortgage, you should be mindful that it is probable that someone wishing to purchase your property in the future might well do, so where they can't secure a mortgage, then the financial worth of the property could suffer. In the last decade most banks and building societies have increased the required minimum lease length that they are willing to lend on

Rhosesmor case:

Last Winter we were e-mailed by Mr D Davis , who acquired a basement flat in Rhosesmor in September 2001. We are asked if we could estimate the premium would likely be for a ninety year extension to my lease. Comparable flats in Rhosesmor with an extended lease were worth £243,000. The average ground rent payable was £65 collected annually. The lease finished in 2089. Having 63 years outstanding we estimated the premium to the landlord to extend the lease to be between £20,000 and £23,000 exclusive of expenses.
