<p>Developers and housebuilders who sell the freehold of a house to a leaseholder
after a sale, or who sell on the freehold interest to a third party may not be working
in leaseholders’ best interests. Leaseholders wanting to purchase the freehold interest
can find that they are faced with higher costs, along with significant legal costs,
where they want to purchase the freehold after the point of sale. The Housing White
Paper highlighted the Government's intention to improve fairness and transparency
for these leaseholders.</p>
