I own a leasehold flat in Dyserth. Conveyancing was completed in 2009. I have heard that I mustn’t let the the remaining lease term to get too low. What is the reasoning?
Dyserth leasehold properties are for a set term - normally just under one hundred years when they are first granted. However many appartments in Dyserth were constructed or converted in the 60’s and so such leases now have under 80 years left to run. This may sound like plenty of time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies generally require leases to have a minimum of 75 years remaining to adequate security. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are approaching 75 years. To optimize your property value you should be thinking about whether or not to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. There are also significant benefits to doing so before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease falls below 80 years the premium to be paid to extend starts to escalate.
