Hello Kizzi, 'The freehold shared by all leaseholders has no value and obviously as it’s jointly owned a lender won’t lend on it.' A freehold as you describe it shows that there is no landlord. To put it another way:...

Reply to the comment left by Hamish McLay at 09/05/2024 - 11:00Thank you, Hamish. But we are a freehold-owning company. We do not have a landlord. So a leasehold specialist is no use to us. In fact, my problem with...
