We own a leasehold flat in De Beauvoir Town. Conveyancing was completed in 2011. I have been told that I should not let the the remaining lease term to fall too low. Why is that a problem?

De Beauvoir Town residential long term leases are for a set term - normally ninety nine years when they started. However a significant flats in De Beauvoir Town were built or converted in the 70’s80’s and so such leases now have under eighty years unexpired. This may seem like plenty of time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies tend to require leases to have at least 75 years remaining to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are getting close to seventy five years. To enhance your property value you should be considering whether to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. You should note that there are advantages to taking action before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease falls below 80 years the premium you have to pay to extend starts to escalate.
