Leasehold Land

Leasehold is a form of property tenure where one party buys the right to occupy land or a building for a given length of time. A lease is a legal estate leasehold that can be bought and sold on the open market and differs from a tenancy where a property is let on a periodic basis such as weekly or monthly. At the expiry of the term the land reverts back to the owner.
