seen it but don't think it is a con - the freehold does belong to the developr as upon completion it will obtain the same for the buyer

its not the supply and demand that makes the freehold more valuable - its that the freehold IS more valuable (thus driving the demand) - its just marketing smoke and mirrors at the end of the day rather than a con/fraud - unless i am missing something

if a buyer cannot calculate the price per square meter to include 'freehold fee' thats their own stupidity IMHO

of course relying on 'advice' from the agent is to rely on sales patter and nothing else - 'buyer beware' - i wouldn't rely on the agent's advice in farangland and even less so here
