I own an equity share of 70% on a leasehold over 55's flat. No ground rent, no rent on other 30%. When I bought it was not possible to buy more or less than 70% though I understand 100% is now available from the Housing Association who now own our leases. My Land Registry Official Copy shows Absolute Title.&#160;<br> Nothing in the lease uses the words 'shared ownership' or 'restricted price covenant' just an earlier reference to equity&#160; share.<br> Older Persons Shared Ownership seems to fit the situation but then&#160;&#160;that would still be restricted to 75% ownership.&#160;

The Housing Association likely owns the freehold, presumably with Title Absolute.

You own the leasehold, with Title Absolute.

This does not describe who the owner is, just whether HM Land Registry is certain of the ownership.
