@arivero @thejoosisloos @TraceyRyniec@tokyorockz@Eric_Erins@64thNWestern They tend to be apartments, where the freeholder wants to sell a number of properties to different people but not the land on which the building sits.
They can range in length, most I dealt with tended to be 999 years - anything under 80 can start to be problematic.
@SJ_Watson MFP is your friend - cut back elsewhere and you’ll find you have plenty of other ‘Options’.
(Except don’t use Options, they’re rank! Have half as much proper hot chocolate!)
@arivero @thejoosisloos @TraceyRyniec@tokyorockz@Eric_Erins@64thNWestern Short leases like those you are referring to are quite rare - and you have a legal right to extend them. A leasehold and a shorter term rental are two completely different things.
@AasmahMir We literally have a phrase in my family: ‘what time do we disappear for [meal]’ when we want to know what time the food will be ready, as so many people do it 😂
@deathtospinach@jayrayner1 We were given a large bag of these yesterday - NINE strawberry creams and not a SINGLE orange one (my faves). I am traumatised.
