Sell shares in company owning freehold & right of first refusal

by Phillybobson

Hi - we are selling the shares in the Management company that owns the freehold on a building with 2 flats in the block.
Does this trigger any right of first refusal issues?
There will be no change in ownership of the freehold, just transfer of shares.
Many thanks.

It's the leaseholder who wants to send their own surveyor or architect, and has refused to allow their insurance...
