Most lease extensions take between 6 and 12 months from start to finish. Some take longer. A few are completed more quickly.
But here's the thing. Every month your case takes, your lease gets one month shorter. And the cost to extend goes up.
The Costs of Delay
The longer your lease extension takes, the more it costs you.
The premium goes up. Every month you delay, your lease gets shorter. And the shorter the lease, the higher the premium. This is especially true once you're approaching the 80-year mark.
The freeholder's costs go up. If the freeholder drags out negotiations, you may end up paying their legal and valuation costs – and those costs increase the longer the case takes.
Your stress goes up. A long, drawn-out process is stressful. You're constantly worrying about deadlines, chasing updates, and wondering when it will all be over.
Why Speed Matters
The faster your lease extension is completed, the lower your costs and the less stress you'll experience.
That's why extension.lease focuses on efficiency. Their team of RICS-qualified surveyors and SRA-regulated solicitors work together seamlessly. There's no waiting for one to respond to the other. The valuation is prepared while the legal notices are being drafted. Your Section 42 Notice gets served weeks faster.
