Lease Extension
If you are thinking of extending your lease, it is important to take advice promptly to see if you qualify for the right to claim a new lease as the premium payable for a new lease will increase sharply if you allow the term to drop below 80 years before exercising your right. With shorter leases it will become more expensive to extend over time all other things holding equal.
