As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

I own a leasehold flat in Tower Hill. Conveyancing was completed in 2011. I have been told that I mustn’t allow the lease length fall too short. Is this right?

Tower Hill residential long term leases are for a set period - often just under one hundred years when they started. However many appartments in Tower Hill were constructed or converted in the 70’s80’s and so such leases now have fewer than 80 years remaining. This may sound like a long time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage lenders tend to require leases to have a minimum of seventy five years unexpired to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are approaching eighty years. To maximise your property value you should be considering whether to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. Please note that there are significant benefits to doing so before the lease hits eighty years as when the lease falls below 80 years the amount to be paid to extend starts to escalate.
