How to Lease. A guide for current and prospective leaseholders in England. (.pdf)
We are pleased to share the first in a series of Leasehold Information Sheets created by a joint working party with our colleagues at ARMA IRPM RICS and LEASE. We have also received endorsements for the sheets from NAEA, Property Redress Scheme, Housing Ombudsman and the Property Ombudsman, who will also be making them available. The information is intended to provide a better understanding of leasehold for people who may wish to purchase a leasehold interest but may not appreciate the differences between freehold and leasehold. Further sheets will be added as they are produced and we hope you find them useful.
