  • If you are interested in freehold remember most sharehold properties are leasehold so there may be other charges than can increase, maintenance charges and ground rent.

    Though an interest only mortgage would require a large deposit for it to work maybe a third of value of house, than sell house when value of house has increased by a third. So this is not an option either.

    Please note that at no point during this work was the kettle ever put out of commission and no chavs were harmed during the making of this post.
  • We've found multiple homes that are freehold.

    Is this something we should pursue and can you identify any pitfalls we should be careful of?

    Thanks.
