I inherited a ground floor flat in Newton Ferrers, conveyancing was carried out March 2002. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent flats in Newton Ferrers with a long lease are worth £211,000. The ground rent is £45 charged once a year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2092

With only 67 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £10,500 and £12,000 plus legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
