How is the lease structured? Plenty Settle leasehold properties will have a service bill for the upkeep of the block set on behalf of the freeholder. Should you acquire the property you will have to pay this amount, usually periodically accross the year. This could differ from a few hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for blocks with lifts and large communal areas. There will also be a rentcharge to be met annual, normally this is not a large sum, say approximately £50-£100 but you need to enquire it because sometimes it can be surprisingly expensive.
