<p>The Government does not collect this data and has made no estimate of the cost.
There is no single method for the valuation of enfranchisement of leasehold houses
or flats and the Government is aware of unfair practices, which have led to leaseholders
paying substantial sums on the premium and costs associated with enfranchising.</p><p>This
is why the Government has asked the Law Commission to review the enfranchisement process
to make it simpler, easier, quicker and more cost effective. Its consultation, which
included proposals for a unified valuation methodology, closed on 7 January 2019.
The Law Commission will publish its final report later this year.</p><p> </p>
