We own a leasehold flat in Thames Ditton. Conveyancing was finished in five years ago. I have heard that I mustn’t allow the lease length get too low. What is the reasoning?

Thames Ditton leasehold properties are for a prescribed period - usually ninety nine years when they started. However many flats in Thames Ditton were constructed or converted 25 or more years ago and so such leases now have under 80 years unexpired. That may seem like a long time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage institutions generally require leases to have a minimum of seventy five years remaining to be mortgageable. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are nearing seventy five years. To increase the marketability of your property you should be thinking about whether to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. There are also significant benefits to taking action before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease is less than 80 years the amount you have to pay to extend starts to escalate.
