Freehold properties are real estate assets that are owned outright by the individual or entity, meaning they have complete ownership of both the land and any structures on it. This type of ownership is often considered the most secure form of property ownership, as there are no time limits on how long the owner can hold the property. In contrast to leasehold properties, where ownership is temporary and subject to lease agreements, freehold properties provide the owner with full rights to use, modify, or sell the property as they wish. This makes freehold ownership a popular choice for homeowners and investors alike.
