The term 'commonhold' describes a new form of land owning within registered freehold land. The commonhold scheme is an alternative to leasehold ownership and ensures that the occupants of a development are entirely in control, with no landlord or other third party able to exercise influence. The book benefits from the following features: - A unique and substantial cases digest section, which demonstrates the authors' wide ranging comparative research into authorities on similar systems in use in commonwealth and other jurisdictions. - A comprehensive bank of forms for use in every conceivable type of situation, including the setting up of a commonhold association, the making of a commonhold community statement, the application for registration, and precedents for all proceedings. - A Frequently Asked Questions chapter setting out, and resolving, issues which are likely to occur in practice and which have been debated in court. - A Best Practice Guide, which will set out the do's and dont's of running a commonhold. - All the relevant sections from the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act, fully annotated along with other useful legislative materials. The text will also benefit from a companion website which will offer further guidance and materials after the book has published.
