We had a very disappointing experience with Ahtons while attempting to purchase a property. Throughout the process we repeatedly asked about the tenure and were consistently told it was share of freehold. Not once were we informed that the property was actually leasehold with less than 40 years remaining — information that only came to light after the memorandum was issued. This is a material fact that directly affects both the value and the mortgageability of a property. Had we been given accurate information from the beginning, especially after asking multiple specific questions, we would never have proceeded. Ahtons were fully aware of the stressful, time-sensitive situation we were in, yet still failed to provide this essential information upfront. As a result, we lost time, money, and the opportunity to pursue another property. Our experience reflects a serious lack of transparency and professionalism, and we would urge future buyers to be extremely cautious.
