Leasehold vs Freehold


Explanation:
Tenure: Leasehold land, land ownership with a term limit, usually reverts back to the Council or the State.

Title: Freehold land, land usually held in perpetuity, can be inherited by generations of heirs.

This is the general idea especially in Commonwealth Countries.
