Leasehold Enfranchisement London

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.
