About this book

The Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act made it feasible for long leaseholders to buy their freeholds. But many residents wanting to do so face a David-and-Goliath challenge with landlords who may have deeper pockets, better lawyers, stronger organisational clout and the leisure of time.

With clear and simple tools and tips, Lawpack author and leasehold consultant Kat Callo tells you how to go about a successful freehold acquisition without wasting money, time and effort and without souring relationships with your neighbours. This book tells you how to avoid money, time and effort wasted, relationships amongst neighbours soured and no freehold purchased.
