Half a year ago James, started to get close to the eighty-year threshold with the lease on his garden apartment in Talsarnau. Having purchased his home 18 years previously, the lease term was of no relevance. Luckily, he recognised he would soon be paying an inflated amount for a lease extension. James arranged for a lease extension just in the nick of time last January. James and the freeholder in the end settled on sum of £5,500 . If the lease had gone to less than 80 years, the figure would have gone up by a minimum £1,100.

Talsarnau case:

Last Winter we were e-mailed by Mrs G Lefebvre , who bought a recently refurbished apartment in Talsarnau in February 2004. The dilemma was if we could approximate the compensation to the landlord would likely be for a ninety year lease extension. Similar flats in Talsarnau with an extended lease were worth £198,800. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £55 invoiced every twelve months. The lease concluded in 2081. Having 55 years left we calculated the compensation to the landlord for the lease extension to be between £33,300 and £38,400 not including professional charges.

Last Spring we were called by Mr and Mrs. P Petit , who owned a garden apartment in Talsarnau in March 1998.

Identical properties in Talsarnau with an extended lease were valued about £300,000. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £50 billed quarterly. The lease expired on 21 January 2101. Having 75 years remaining we approximated the premium to the freeholder for the lease extension to be within £8,600 and £9,800 exclusive of professional charges.
