Top reasons for Yeading lease extension


Main reasons to commence your Yeading lease extension today:

A Yeading leasehold property depreciates with the years remaining on the lease.

As the length of the unexpired term of a Yeading residential lease diminished so does its value and therefore the value of your property. Where the lease has, over 99 years remaining then this decrease may be fractional however there will become a stage when a lease has fewer than 80 years remaining as part of the premium you will incur is what is known as a marriage value. This could be significant. It is the main rational as to why you should extend the lease without delay. Most flat owners in Yeading will qualify for this right; however a conveyancing solicitor can advise if you are eligible for a lease extension. In certain situations you may not qualify, the most frequent reason being that you have owned the property for less than two years.

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

It is generally accepted that a residential leasehold with over 100 years unexpired lease term is worth roughly the equivalent as a freehold. Where an additional 90 years added to all but the shortest lease, the property will be worth the same as a freehold for decades to come.

Lending institutions will not finance a property on a short lease

Banks and building societies are really restricting their approach as regards to homes in Yeading with short leases. For instance you may find that their lending requirements are stricter and that they alter interest rates depending on the unexpired lease term. Some may even refuse to lend completely, so if you wanted to sell, your only options would be to find a cash purchaser, or try your luck at auction thus limiting the amount of potential buyers.

Harry, Yeading, North London,

Harry owned a high value flat in Yeading being marketed with a lease of a few days over fifty eight years remaining. Harry informally approached his landlord a well known Manchester-based freehold company for a lease extension. The freeholder indicated a willingness to extend the lease to 125 years on the basis of a rise in the rent to £125 annually. No ground rent would be payable on a lease extension were Harry to exercise his statutory right. Harry procured expert advice and was able to make a more informed judgement and deal with the matter and ending up with a market value flat.
