Manor Park property with a lease extension is almost the same value as a freehold

Leasehold residencies in Manor Park with over 100 years outstanding on the lease are sometimes regarded as a ‘virtual freehold’. This is where the lease value the same as a freehold interest in your home.

Manor Park Lease Extension Case Studies:

Jasmine, Manor Park, London,

After lengthy negotiations with the freeholder of her ground floor apartment in Manor Park, Jasmine initiated the lease extension process just as her lease was nearing the all-important 80-year threshold. The transaction was concluded in March 2013. The landlord’s costs were restricted to about 600 pounds.

Manor Park case:

In 2013 we were called by Mr Ethan Campbell who, having owned a newly refurbished apartment in Manor Park in November 1996. The dilemma was if we could estimate the price would be to prolong the lease by a further 90 years. Comparative homes in Manor Park with 100 year plus lease were in the region of £275,000. The mid-range ground rent payable was £55 invoiced every twelve months. The lease elapsed on 3 April 2102. Given that there were 76 years left we estimated the premium to the freeholder to extend the lease to be within £9,500 and £11,000 plus legals.
