I own a leasehold flat in Budleigh Salterton. Conveyancing was finished in five years ago. I have read on a number of advice forums that I mustn’t allow the lease length fall too low. Why is that a problem?

Budleigh Salterton leasehold properties are for a prescribed period - normally ninety nine years when they are first granted. However many flats in Budleigh Salterton were constructed or converted in the 70’s80’s and so these leases now have less than eighty years remaining. That may seem like a long time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage lenders tend to need leases to have at least 75 years left to adequate security. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are getting close to eighty years. To optimize the marketability of your property you should be thinking about whether or not to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. There are also strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease hits eighty years as when the lease is less than eighty years the amount you have to pay to extend starts to escalate.
