When buying or selling a leasehold property additional fees can be payable. It is not possible to tell how much these may be until we have seen the lease or contacted the managing agent but as a guide you should be aware that the following may be payable:
Fee payable to obtain the management pack which details of service charges buildings insurance proposed maintenance etc. These fees can vary from £150 upwards and are set by the landlord or managing agent.
Fess payable for any necessary landlord’s consent for alterations done to the property or approval of the purchaser. These will be set by the Landlord.
Registration fees payable to the Landlord or Manging Agent to register the transfer of ownership. These maybe set out in the lease.
Please call 01242 235202 to speak to us, or fill in the form on the right so we can contact you to discuss this without commitment.
