Buying a Property - Leasehold

If you wish to buy leasehold property in UK, you will require specialist advice to make proper decisions, as you only have the right to live in a leased property within the period of lease. Leasehold property such as flats and apartments do not include the land on which they are built. Until the lease period expires, the leaseholder has to take care of maintenance and repairs, and the property becomes the possession of the freeholder thereafter. You may also need to pay ground rent on leasehold property as a resident of the property. As this is a difficult and wide-ranging area of the law, it is advisable to seek the help of a solicitor who is well-versed with it, and that is where Legal Compare can assist you.
