Main reasons to start your Goole lease extension


Top reasons for lease extension now:

Increase your lease and increase your Goole property value

The only way is down when it comes to Goole lease terms. Goole properties that have a residual term shorter than eighty years will reduce in value at a rapid rate, and the cost to extend your lease will go up.

An extended lease has roughly the same value as a freehold

It is generally considered that a property with over 100 years unexpired lease term is worth roughly the same as a freehold. Where an additional ninety years added to any lease with more than 30 years unexpired, the premises will be worth the same as a freehold for many years in the future.

Banks and Building Societies may not lend with a short lease

Most mortgage lenders have narrowed their lending criteria in the last ten years and borrowers are encountering difficulties in arranging finance or re-mortgage against property with shorter lease terms, particularly under 75 years as they are regarded as unacceptable for lending purposes.

Goole Lease Extension Case Studies:

Ollie, Goole, East Yorkshire

In 2014 Ollie, started to get close to the eighty-year mark with the lease on his purpose- built flat in Goole. Having bought his home 18 years previously, the unexpired term was of minimal concern. As luck would have it, he noticed he would soon be paying way over the odds for a lease extension. Ollie was able to extend his lease just ahead of time last August. Ollie and the freeholder ultimately agreed on an amount of £5,500 . If the lease had gone lower than 80 years, the price would have become more costly by at least £1,000.

Goole case:

In 2011 we were approached by Mr and Mrs. P Lewis who, having was assigned a lease of a garden flat in Goole in April 2006. The dilemma was if we could approximate the price would be for a ninety year extension to my lease. Comparable properties in Goole with a long lease were valued around £285,000. The mid-range amount of ground rent was £55 billed monthly. The lease end date was on 14 March 2106. Considering the 80 years as a residual term we estimated the premium to the landlord for the lease extension to be between £12,400 and £14,200 plus legals.

Goole case:

Mr P Robinson moved into a purpose-built apartment in Goole in January 1999. We are asked if we could shed any light on how much (roughly) price would be to extend the lease by an additional years. Comparable homes in Goole with 100 year plus lease were valued around £200,800. The average ground rent payable was £65 collected quarterly. The lease ran out on 1 June 2086. Taking into account 60 years outstanding we approximated the premium to the landlord to extend the lease to be between £20,900 and £24,200 plus costs.
