What is Service-Charge?

  • Service charge helps to keeps everything running smoothly. You pay this to the freeholder so they can take care of all the responsibilities outlined in your lease.

  • They own the freehold of your building, the ones that own the piece of land or property your place is on

  • A leaseholder owns the property, but not the land.
    When you buy a leasehold property, you own your home for a set number of years, but the freeholder still owns the land and building.

  • They might be the ‘freeholder’ or an ‘intermediate leaseholder’, but either way, they’re responsible for keeping your building in shape! From maintenance to management, they help decide how your service charge is spent.
