A lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease shortens the saleability of the lease decreases and it becomes more costly to extend the lease.

Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We recommend you get professional help from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this area.
