Many Caerphilly leasehold apartments will incur a service bill for the upkeep of the building set by the landlord. Should you purchase the apartment you will have to pay this contribution, normally periodically during the year. This may be anything from a few hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for bigger purpose-built blocks. There will also be a ground rent for you to pay yearly, this is usually not a large figure, say around £50-£100 but you need to enquire it because on occasion it can be surprisingly expensive.
