Can a leaseholder force the freeholder to sell the freehold?

Hi there, yes it is possible under certain circumstances and I believe the process is called collective enfranchisement; https://www.lease-advice.org/advice-guide/ce-getting-started/

I'm a freelance property consultant and I work for buyers and sellers, I just so happen to have acquired a Share of the Freehold in my property a few years back though that was a bit of a difference scenario as we had an absent freeholder but the premise is still the same, working together with your co-leaseholders with the same goal in mind.

Feel free to get back in contact if I can help with anything else property related.

    • So your remedy for anyone harming an animal, amongst which I assume you include at least all insects, is, well, to kill an animal. Good and logical call. Hyperbole only gets you so far, you know.

    • From what I have gathered from Bradbury Oak residents  I have spoken with, that at a meeting with RNIB earlier in the year, none of the residents were in favour of new build. There is the implication that rent rises are anticipated to help towards building costs. Rent is currently in the region of £300 pw - as with most sheltered housing (council and Housing Association), Since these rents also include maintenance charges, utility charges - Housing Benefit is only applicable to the actual 'rent element' per flat.
    • At the Dulwich Hill SNT meeting last night we spoke about Met. Engage. Dulwich Hill had signed up 185 households. Scheme  had been trialled in other parts of the country successfully and now the Met. Police are rolling it out, To the end of August, the Met Police had gathered 17,000 registrations which equites to 2% of households.
