Your leasehold

What is a lease?

This is a contract between you and Norwich City Council. When you buy a flat or a maisonette from us you purchase a leasehold interest and we keep the freehold interest. As the freeholder we own the land on which the property is built and charges a ground rent.

Read the Privacy Notice for information about what we do with your personal data.
