This is designed to be a useful guide to not only new leasehold legislation, but also to the rent restriction and security of tenure rules governing the various types of residential tenancies and the qualifications and procedure for enfranchisement. Formerly entitled "Rent Control and Leasehold Enfranchisement", this edition has been retitled to reflect its increased breadth of coverage. The Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 introduces significant new rights for private sector residential leaseholders, including the right collectively to enfranchise or acquire the landlord's reversion. It also extends the right of individual enfranchisement under the Leasehold Reform Act 1967 to previously excluded classes of tenants. This rather complex area is made clear by the author's practical problem-solving approach, helping practitioners to identify: what alternatives are available to which leaseholders, who qualifies to claim the rights, the procedures involved, and the terms of acquisition and the grounds for resisting claims.
In addition, for every type of tenancy, the author explains the extent of controls, rent to be charged, security of tenure, and grounds for possession.
