Burnham On Sea domestic long term leases are for a prescribed period - usually just under one hundred years when they are first granted. However many flats in Burnham On Sea were constructed or converted in the 60’s and so these leases now have under eighty years remaining. That may sound like a long time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage lenders on the whole need leases to have at least 75 years remaining to be mortgageable. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are nearing seventy five years. To increase the saleability of your property you should be thinking about whether or not to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. Furthermore advantages to doing so before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease falls below 80 years the amount to be paid to extend starts to escalate.
