As the the remaining lease term of a Tredegar residential lease decreases so does its value and therefore the value of your property. Where the lease has, more than 99 years remaining then this decrease may be negligible however there will become a stage when a lease has under than 80 years remaining as part of the premium you will incur is what is known as a marriage value. This could increase sharply the cost. It is the main logic behind why you should consider extending without delay. Many flat owners in Tredegar will qualify for this right; nevertheless a conveyancing solicitor can advise if you qualify to extend your lease. In certain situations you may not qualify, the most frequent reason being that you have not been the owner of the property for two years.
Leasehold residencies in Tredegar with over one hundred years outstanding on the lease are sometimes regarded as a ‘virtual freehold’. This is where the lease is worth the same as a freehold interest in your premises. In such circumstances there is often little upside in buying the freehold unless savings on ground rent and service charges warrant it.

In 2014 we were phoned by Mr and Mrs. K Howard who, having was assigned a lease of a garden flat in Tredegar in February 2001. The dilemma was if we could approximate the compensation to the landlord would be for a 90 year extension to my lease. Comparable premises in Tredegar with an extended lease were worth £225,800. The mid-range ground rent payable was £60 invoiced per annum. The lease expired on 28 July 2086.
