We own a leasehold flat in Thorpe St Andrew. Conveyancing was finished in five years ago. I have been told that I mustn’t let the lease length fall too short. Why is that a problem?
Thorpe St Andrew domestic long term leases are for a prescribed period - normally just under one hundred years when they are first granted. However many flats in Thorpe St Andrew were built or converted 35 or more years ago and so such leases now have under 80 years unexpired. That may seem like a long time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage lenders generally need leases to have a minimum of 75 years remaining to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are nearing seventy five years. To maximise the marketability of your property you should be thinking about whether to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. Please note that there are significant benefits to taking action before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease falls below 80 years the amount to be paid to extend starts to increase.
