I am nearing completion on buying a new house, its a new build but about ten years old
Only just found out there's an estate management fee, not a problem really it's about £20 a month for grass cutting upkeep of the roads and communal areas
However I've now Done a bit of googling and seen some horror stories, seems to be a licence to print money for some unscrupulous twats, there's been incidents where the management company has sold the contract on and they've massively increased the costs to piss taking levels, then of course you're stuck with the house cos no one wants to buy it with those sort of charges
Can I ask for posters experiences paying these fees? Has anyone had this actually happen?
Other than this it's my dream house
