There are no two ways about it. A leasehold flat in Saltburn By The Sea is a deteriorating asset as a result of the reducing lease term. The closer the lease gets to its expiry date, the more it adversely affects the value of the premises.

When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero.
