What recorded tenure means
Freehold normally includes ownership of the building and land; leasehold gives ownership for the term of a lease. The result here is the tenure recorded at the last sale. It does not establish the current title, remaining years, service charge or ground rent. Ask the conveyancer to check the registered title and lease before exchange.
