The majority of Low Moor leasehold apartments will be liable to pay a service charge for maintenance of the block set by the freeholder. Where you acquire the apartment you will have to meet this liability, normally periodically during the year. This could vary from a few hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for buildings with lifts and large common areas. There will also be a rentcharge for you to pay annual, normally this is not a large amount, say approximately £50-£100 but you need to check as on occasion it could be many hundreds of pounds.
