A freeholder (landlord) of a residential property owes several legal responsibilities to leaseholders, primarily centered around managing, maintaining, and insuring the building structure and common areas. The freeholder is legally obligated to maintain the structural integrity of the building, repair exterior walls, manage the roof and foundation, maintain common hallways, and secure a master building insurance policy. Additionally, they must provide clear, itemized statements of annual service charges and maintenance fees, consult leaseholders before executing major costly repairs, and ensure quiet enjoyment of the premises.
