Reversionary Interests

A reversionary interest in a property is simply the freehold interest that remains once long leases have been granted to third party purchasers. Their valuation can be troublesome but it appears that some form of yield based approach has been used on many freehold reversions.

The yield clearly arises from the ground rents being charged to leaseholders with the lease agreements providing for upward fixed rent reviews every fixed number of years.

These reversionary interests can be realised using a broker specialising in the same or by private treaty although if the reversionary value is relatively small this may not be very cost effective.
