Advice from a very old woman. Do not buy any property that comes with ANY fees at all that you have to pay to a third party, save for council tax, after the day of the completion of your purchase. If you do, you will be signing yourself up to be a cash cow year after year and the feels will escalate year after year and there will be very little you can do about it, particularly if the property is sold as 'freehold' with estate fees, rent charge etc. because this sort of property known as fleecehold, because you will be fleeced forever because, you do will not have any access to leasehold law, for what that is worth,at least it is a mechanism for some sort of redress.
