Dalton in Furness leases on domestic deteriorating in value. Where your lease has about 90 years left, you should start thinking about a lease extension. An important point to note is that it is financially advisable for your lease extension to be in place before the term of the current lease dips under eighty years - otherwise a higher premium will be due. Leasehold owners in Dalton in Furness will usually be legally entitled to a lease extension; however It would be wise to check with a conveyancing solicitor to confirm if you qualify. In certain situations you may not be entitled. There are prescribed deadlines and steps to comply with once the process is triggered so it’s sensible to be guided by a conveyancing solicitor during the process.
It is generally accepted that a residential leasehold with in excess of one hundred years remaining is worth approximately the same as a freehold. Where an additional 90 years added to any lease with more than 35 years left, the residence will be worth the same as a freehold for many years in the future.

Tyler was the the leasehold owner of a studio flat in Dalton in Furness being sold with a lease of a few days over 61 years unexpired. Tyler informally approached his landlord a well known local-based freehold company and enquired on a premium to extend the lease. The landlord was keen to grant an extension on non-statutory terms taking the lease to 125 years on the basis of a new rent to start with set at £200 per annum and increase every 25 years thereafter. No ground rent would be due on a lease extension were Tyler to exercise his statutory right. Tyler obtained expert legal guidance and secured an acceptable resolution informally and ending up with a market value flat.
