Lease Extension Valuation Services in Eastbourne, Kent
Lease Extension Surveyor in Eastbourne
If you own a leasehold flat in Eastbourne, it’s essential to understand the impact of your remaining lease term. Properties with under 90 years left on the lease can quickly become more expensive to extend, especially once they fall below the 80-year threshold. At Olden Property, we provide clear, fixed-fee lease extension valuations to help you take control and avoid unnecessary costs.
From period conversions in Meads and Old Town to modern apartments in Sovereign Harbour, we bring local knowledge and RICS-regulated valuation expertise to every instruction.
What We Offer:
Fixed-Fee Lease Extension Reports
Transparent pricing with no hidden extras — ideal for leaseholders preparing for negotiation or statutory claims under the Leasehold Reform Act 1993.
Local Market Knowledge
We have extensive experience with leasehold flats across Meads, Roselands, Old Town, and Sovereign Harbour — allowing us to assess values accurately using relevant local comparables.

Covering Eastbourne Postcodes BN20, BN21, and BN22
From Upperton and Hampden Park to the Seaside area and the harbour, we understand Eastbourne’s leasehold property market and apply local insight to every valuation.
“If you own a flat in Eastbourne and your lease is nearing 80 years or fewer, it’s wise to take action sooner rather than later. Once the lease term falls below this threshold, the cost of extending it rises considerably due to the introduction of marriage value — a legal mechanism that increases the premium payable to the freeholder. Extending your lease before reaching 80 years can help you avoid this additional cost and preserve both your flat’s market value and its appeal to lenders.
For freeholders in Eastbourne who are served with a Section 42 Notice, obtaining a formal valuation is vital to ensure that the premium reflects fair compensation — including the loss of future ground rent and the impact on reversionary value.
At Olden Property, we provide independent, RICS-compliant lease extension valuations for both leaseholders and freeholders throughout Eastbourne and the wider BN20–BN22 postcode areas. Whether you’re preparing to serve notice or responding to one, we offer clear, expert advice aligned with the requirements of the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993.”
