This report explores consumer demand for, awareness of, and understanding of different types of homeownership and management, with a particular focus on commonhold.

The report also covers consumer understanding of the rights and responsibilities associated with greater homeowner-led management of buildings, views on enfranchising (buying out the freehold) and converting existing leasehold buildings to commonhold, as well as what support consumers may need in taking on greater management responsibilities for their homes.
