What it is

The Leasehold Advisory Service (LEASE) is an executive non-departmental public body sponsored by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. It is mandated to provide free, authoritative, and impartial initial legal advice to residential leaseholders and park home owners in England and Wales, helping the public navigate complex property law and disputes. Established in 1994, LEASE has expanded over three decades to support national housing reforms, including guidance on building safety and leasehold enfranchisement.
