Not the same as a house on a freehold plot

Park homes are often sold with a site agreement rather than freehold land in the familiar sense. Rules, fees, and termination rights can matter more than the unit itself.

What to read carefully

  • Written statement rules and site licence references where applicable.
  • Pitch fees and review mechanisms.
  • Age restrictions, pet rules, and site owner responsibilities for utilities and maintenance.

Professional support

Use a solicitor experienced in park home purchases. This guide cannot replace advice on your specific agreement.

Practical tip

If you are comparing options, keep a simple checklist of fees and rights, then store final documents against the home record if you use a Property Passport for organisation after you move in.

What to check next

Use [Property Passport UK](/search) to open the property by address or postcode, then review official context alongside anything you save as Documents for your own workflow.

How Property Passport UK helps
