Many people own their house or flat but have what is known as a “leasehold interest”. In other words, rather than owning the property outright as is the case with freehold ownership, they have a long lease for a fixed period of time, paying a ground rent and possibly a service charge to a landlord who owns the freehold.
Leasehold law is complex and can be a minefield for the unwary. QualitySolicitors Parkinson Wright can advise on all aspects of Leasehold law including:
• Lease extensions for houses and flats
• Buying the freehold from your landlord
• Taking over the management and administration of service charges from your landlord
