If you are seeking a Lease Extension Valuer in Croydon, South London, we are here to assist you. Leasehold Enfranchisement encompasses the rights of flat or house owners to extend their lease or purchase the freehold of their homes. Typically, leases are granted for 99 or 125 years. However, as the lease term decreases, particularly below 80 years, the value of the property may decline to a point where it becomes challenging to secure a mortgage and difficult to sell. To address this, the law provides a procedure that allows you to extend your lease by adding an additional 90 years to the existing period unexpired.

Our goal is to provide valuable advice and help you find the most cost-effective solution while ensuring optimal value for your investment.

 

 

How we do it

When it comes to extending your lease or acquiring your freehold, there are multiple value calculations involved in determining the appropriate premium to be paid to the freeholder. Our team of experienced valuers, who are registered with the Leasehold Advisory Service and members of the Association of Leasehold Enfranchisement Practitioners (ALEP), possess the expertise needed for this intricate process.

Leasehold Enfranchisement

Leasehold Enfranchisement is the collective term given to the rights of flat or house owners to either extend their lease or buy the freehold of their homes. Leases are generally granted for 99 or 125 years but as they get shorter, particularly under 80 years, the value of the flat (or house) will start to fall until it can no longer be mortgaged and then difficult to sell. The law sets out the procedure to enable you to extend your lease by adding 90 years to the existing period unexpired.
