How it works Export guides What we review Upload
How it works

Three steps. Five minutes.

You do not need any special software. Every email app can save emails as a PDF. Here is the process.

1

Search your inbox

Find the email chain with your freeholder, managing agent, or solicitor. Look for the thread that worries you most.

2

Save it as a PDF

Use "Print" then "Save as PDF" in your email app. This captures the full thread including dates and attachments.

3

Upload it below

Use the form at the bottom of this page. Adam receives it immediately with a notification and will reply within 48 hours.

Step-by-step guides

How to export emails as PDF

Choose your email app below. Each guide takes about 2 minutes to follow.

Step 1

Search for the conversation

Open Gmail and use the search bar at the top. Type the name or email address of your freeholder or managing agent. You can also search for specific words like "service charge" or "lease extension" to narrow it down.

Tip: Use from:name@example.com to find all emails from a specific sender. Add after:2025/01/01 to limit by date.
Step 2

Open the email thread

Click on the conversation you want to export. Gmail groups replies together automatically, so opening one email usually shows the full back-and-forth chain. Scroll down to make sure all messages in the thread are visible.

Step 3

Print the conversation

Click the printer icon in the top right of the email thread. Alternatively, press Ctrl+P on Windows or Cmd+P on Mac. Gmail will open a print preview showing all messages in the thread.

Step 4

Save as PDF

In the print dialog, change the "Destination" dropdown to "Save as PDF". Click "Save". Choose a location on your computer and give the file a name you will recognise, like "Freeholder emails Jan-Mar 2026.pdf".

Tip: If you have multiple separate threads (not part of the same conversation), repeat this process for each one. You can upload multiple files.
Step 1

Search for the conversation

Open Outlook and click the search bar at the top. Type the name or email address of the person you have been corresponding with. Outlook will show matching emails across all your folders.

Tip: Click "Current Mailbox" to search everywhere, or filter by folder. Use the "From" filter to narrow results to a specific sender.
Step 2 (Desktop app)

Open and print the email

Open the email you want to save. Go to File, then Print. In the printer dropdown, select "Microsoft Print to PDF" (Windows) or choose "Save as PDF" from the PDF dropdown (Mac). Click Print, then save the file.

Step 2 (Web version)

Open and print from Outlook.com

Open the email in Outlook on the web. Click the three dots (more actions) at the top of the message, then select "Print". In the print dialog, change the destination to "Save as PDF" and click Save.

Tip: Outlook web only prints one message at a time. If you need the full thread, scroll to show all replies, then use Ctrl+P / Cmd+P to capture the whole page.
Step 3

For multiple emails in a thread

If the conversation spans multiple separate emails (not grouped as a thread), repeat the print-to-PDF process for each one. Name them in order so Adam can follow the timeline, for example: "01 - Initial request.pdf", "02 - Freeholder reply.pdf".

Step 1

Search for the conversation

Open the Mail app on your Mac. Use the search field in the top-right corner. Type the name or email address of your freeholder or managing agent. Mail will show matching messages below the search bar.

Tip: Click "From" in the search suggestions to filter to emails from a specific sender. You can also search by subject line or keywords.
Step 2

Open the email thread

Click on the conversation you want to export. If "Organise by Conversation" is turned on (View menu), Mail will group related messages together. Make sure you can see all the messages you want to include.

Step 3

Export as PDF

With the email open, go to File, then Export as PDF. Choose where to save it and give it a clear name. Apple Mail will create a PDF of the entire visible conversation.

Tip: If "Export as PDF" is not available in your version of Mail, use File then Print, then click the "PDF" dropdown in the bottom-left of the print dialog and select "Save as PDF".
Step 4

For iPhone or iPad

Open the email in the Mail app. Tap the reply/forward arrow, then select "Print". On the print preview, pinch outward with two fingers on the preview image. This opens it as a full-screen PDF. Tap the share button and choose "Save to Files".

What happens next

What Adam reviews

This is not a legal service. It is a second pair of eyes from someone who has managed a building, dealt with freeholders, and understands the leasehold system from the inside.

Tone and tactics

Is the freeholder or agent being evasive, aggressive, or simply not responding? Adam has seen all of these and can tell you what the pattern usually means.

Rights being ignored

Are they failing to provide information you are legally entitled to? Are deadlines being missed? Sometimes the issue is not what they said, but what they did not say.

Your next move

Based on where the conversation has landed, Adam will suggest specific next steps. That might be a template letter from our library, a referral to LEASE advisory, or a prompt for LEASE-iQ to check your lease.
