  • Anyone have any horror stories about freeholders (deliberately) fucking up your apartment sale?
    Feel free to share. Need to know what I might be getting myself into.

  • I've heard of a few but it was mainly the case that there were terms in the lease that they wouldn't give up and making that clear rather than sabotaging for the sake of it (for instance one wouldn't remove a term in the lease that didn't allow the leaseholder to rent the property out so the buy-to-let purchase fell through).

  • TBF, I would say that there could be two sides to that anti buy-to-let clause. Depending on the goals of the housing association and wishes of the immediate neighbours I would reckon that such a clause could be perfectly reasonable.
