"The housing sector is not perfect, yet there are some significant advantages and disadvantages of both freehold and leasehold."
"If you want to put up a picture frame, for example, in your home, you're not going to have to get permission from yourself to do that. You might need to get permission from your wife, though, just in case."
"The disadvantages of leaseholds is that they normally come with ground rent, they normally come with service charges. And that can have an impact on your yield, that can have an impact on your cash flow."
"The big advantage of a freehold is you've got the freedom. You've got the freedom to do things. You don't have to ask many people if you need to do something, which is good."
