Do you lease your flat? Why is it important to consider extending your lease?

If your Flat was built in the 60s 70s or 80s the Lease is probably only for 99 or at most 125 years. A Lease with less than 80 years left to run is always more difficult to sell as mortgage companies will not be keen to lend against them particularly in todays lending climate. What was once a good investment could now developing into a financial burden.
