Why Purchase Your Freehold
Buying the freehold of a flat is a legal right that is beneficial for a number of reasons. Some of things freehold property owners can do include:
- Benefit from 999 (perpetual) year lease extensions at no additional cost
- Remove all obligations to pay ground rent
- Make annual service charges more affordable and efficient
- Appoint your own management company and service providers, who report to you
- Grant yourself permissions and removing unhelpful restrictions
- Grant yourself building rights on the freehold land
- Oversee the building’s maintenance, insurance and servicing to a standard which better suits you
- Prioritise how your money is spent
- Take control and improve the value of your home and investment
Purchasing your freehold gives you the freedom and control you deserve

Is it worth buying the freehold of a flat?
Though the process is complex, it is more than worthwhile buying the freehold of a flat because freehold flat owners gain access to plentiful benefits. Those who own the freehold can do things like extend their lease at no extra cost, take control of the building, including managing service charges to get value for money and quality providers, and add considerable value to their homes.
What is a purchase of the freehold?: If you purchase the freehold, you own the freehold of the building in which you live, alongside other flat owners. A limited company is formed that is owned and controlled by the group of flat owners that joined in, giving each participant a long lease under the new entity that owns the freehold, which is controlled by you and your neighbours that joined in the purchase.

Without TFC and their contacts we would not have met the tight time-scales and legal milestones to complete the purchase. With the threat of a property developer acquiring the lease and building on the gardens of the property we were glad to be working in partnership with TFC.

We found TFC to always be available, responsive and diligent, even on holiday. They work in a clear, organised manner and helped us make the correct and timely decisions.

We felt secure knowing they worked with the best professionals we could have hoped for and who most definitely ensured our best interests were met. The TFC staff are very knowledgeable about the whole process and were extremely helpful at all times, reassuring, efficient, responsive and positive, going out of their way at times, answering all our many questions.
