However, you may be wondering what leasehold enfranchisement actually means and what it entails? Leasehold enfranchisement is a legal term. One example of it is when it is used for the statutory rights of long leasehold flat owners to buy the freehold or take control of the management of their block of flats.

We have worked with many leaseholders that have become frustrated with management by the freeholder or the managing agents that they have appointed. They may feel that they are not getting value for money from the freeholder, or the service they believe they deserve. Some homeowners choose to enfranchise their leasehold as a way to avoid paying a premium when leases need to be extended.
