Yes, you can lose a leasehold property under specific adverse circumstances. The most common risk is the natural expiration of the lease term, at which point ownership rights revert entirely to the freeholder unless a formal renewal or extension was successfully negotiated beforehand. Additionally, you can theoretically forfeit your leasehold interest if you commit a catastrophic breach of the lease contract—such as persistently defaulting on mandatory ground rent payments or refusing to comply with major legal covenants outlined in the master lease agreement.
