Freeholder responsibilities

As a freeholder, you may pay us service charges because you own your home through Right to Buy or have staircased as a shared owner to own 100% of your property. It will state in your title deeds or leases whether we can charge you.

We will only recover certain charges from you which tend to be to maintain external, communal areas (such as grounds maintenance, external cleaning, trees, etc).

Service charges are payments made to us for services and maintenance. Service charges will differ from one area to another and will depend on the type of home and the terms of your lease.

For more information, please visit our service charges page.
