What is a Leaseholder?
Just over 450 of our flats and houses have been sold to
Leaseholders under the 'Right to Buy' legislation. We retain
ownership of the freehold and we have certain responsibilities to
our leaseholders such as keeping the structure of the building in
good repair and providing services to the communal areas, and we
recover the cost of providing these services from the
leaseholder.
More information about the rights and responsibilites of
leaseholders is contained in the
Leaseholder Handbook and our 'Frequently
Asked Questions' page.
Leaseholder Handbook
We have produced a booklet for Leaseholders which provides
information about:
- your rights and responsibilities
- service charges
- repairs, maintenace, improvements and alterations
- selling or transferring your property
- how you can get involved
