Recent price cuts caused by breweries and pub companies offloading unprofitable, struggling, run down or delicensed pubs, bars, restaurants and hotels, are tempting property investors and developers to look at the potential locked up in freehold sites previously thought too expensive to run as a busines.
As a property investment or development opportunity, run down, disused or delicensed freehold pubs, bars and hotels are currently under market value and present excellent modernisation and refurbishment opportunities or are suitable for demolition and redevelopment into offices, shops, care homes, restaurants, flats or apartments
In English law, a freehold refers to the the ownership of real property, being the land and all immovable structures attached to such land. This is opposed to a leasehold in which the property reverts to the owner of the land after the lease period has expired. For an estate to be a freehold it must possess two qualities: immobility (property must be land or some interest issuing out of or annexed to land); and ownership of it must be of an indeterminate duration. If the time of ownership can be fixed and determined, then it cannot be a freehold.

UK Microbreweries, micro breweries, small, independent, local craft breweries in England, Scotland and Wales
The microbrewery term and trend originated in the United Kingdom in the late 1970s to describe the new generation of small, local, independent breweries which had a focus on producing traditional cask ale. Though originally used to reflect the size of the breweries,the term 'microbrwery' has gradually came to reflect an alternative 'micro attitude' and approach to brewing of quality beer The microbrewery term and trend spread to the United States in the 1980s where it eventually was used to indicate a small brewery that produces fewer than 15,000 barrels of beer annually.
Micro or craft breweries have adopted a different marketing strategy than large, mass-market breweries, offering products that compete on the basis of quality and diversity, instead of low price and advertising., These smaller breweries capitalise on thier flexibility and adaptability and focus on experimentation and customer service.
The influence of these small micro breweries has been much greater than their market share, which amounts to only 2% of beer sales in the UK, The larger commercial breweries have introduced new 'micrbrewey style brands' intended to compete for some of the microbrewery beer market and when this failed, they have invested in their own microbrewery and beers or bought out compatable microbreweries.

Pubs, Planners & Planning Permission
Paramount Investments specialise in the sale of licensed and commercial properties and Sales Director, Steve Oliver has been selling pubs, wine bars, hotels and restaurants for the last 8 years."Planners believe a pub is as essential to village life as a shop or post office. The loss of pubs, whether in rural or urban areas, can undermine the local economy and community. Although not impossible it will be harder to get planning permission for changing the use if it's the last pub in the village as planners like to have a least one pub in the area. Your local planning authority will be able to give you their opinion on the feasibility of your plans and if a similar property has already been converted, then this will help your own planning application."

First Time Property Buyers News: Average age of first time buyer 'will be 41 by 2025'
First Time Property Buyers News: Average age of first time buyer 'will be 41 by 2025'
By: Paramount-Magazine Published Date: 30 Jun 2011 16:07The average age of first time buyers will reach 41 by 2025, according to a report by LV=.
Almost half (47 per cent) of people in their 20s and 30s say they cannot afford to purchase a home due to their current financial situation, while 16 per of those who have not yet become first time property buyers said the reason was the lack of UK mortgage lending.
Richard Rowney, life and pensions managing director at the insurance group, commented: "Faced with high property prices, high inflation, uncertainty over the movement of interest rates and a tough economic climate, it is not surprising Brits are developing 'Peter Pan syndrome'.
"However, people need to consider the long term financial impact of delaying major financial steps, particularly if it means they will still have high debts to pay when they are much older and approaching retirement," he added.
Meanwhile, Nationwide figures show London was the only region in the country to witness rising house prices in the second quarter.

‘Bring back fags to save our pubs’ | The Sun |Features
MP Greg Knight wants a change to the smoking ban.
Concerned about its impact on the pub trade - with 25 hostelries closing every week - the East Yorkshire Tory helped launch the Save Our Pubs And Clubs Campaign.
Here, he explains why he would like to see smokers allowed to light up again on licensed premises.
THE aim of our campaign is not to turn back the clock and repeal the smoking ban - what we want is a refinement.
In its current form, the ban is heavy handed and research by the Save Our Pubs And Clubs Campaign proves it is a significant factor in the record number of licensed premises closing down in recent years.
Figures show the rate of pubs and clubs folding increased significantly after the smoking ban came in four years ago.
Some say to change the law would be controversial. But why should it be?
I am a lifelong non-smoker but I believe in fairness. I do not like the way the current law treats smokers like second-class citizens by making them stand outside to smoke.
A dedicated smoking room inside pubs and clubs would be a way round this. The present law allows for such an arrangement already - but only on a boat. Isn't that absurd? People who want to light up in a public building on land must go outside, no matter what.
A dedicated smoking room, where people can congregate to enjoy a cigarette, would not pose health risks to staff as long as it is well ventilated.
UK Pub Sales News: Malt Shovel in Coventry to undergo change of use
Investors who are looking for pubs for sale might be interested to note that the Malt Shovel in Coventry is a "centuries-old pub with historical significance", according to the Campaign for Real Ale (Camra).
Camra branch chair Mike Tierney argued in the Coventry Telegraph that the old pub, which is located in the Spon End part of the city, should not be subjected to a change of use application because this would have "an adverse impact on the nature of the locality".
Unfortunately for would-be investors, the Malt Shovel has already been bought and is reportedly to be transformed into a hypnotherapy centre.
Planning permission has been granted despite opposition from Camra, although councillors made an alteration to the application to ensure the venue will go back to being a pub if the new business fails.
Meanwhile, two former school buildings in Bolton could undergo a change of use and be turned into student accommodation.
