I purchased a basement flat in Rutland, conveyancing was carried out in 2006. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Equivalent flats in Rutland with a long lease are worth £196,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease runs out on 21st October 2089

With only 64 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £15,200 and £17,600 plus costs.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence.
