Leasehold Properties & Managed Freehold Properties

Should you be remortgaging a leasehold property, or a freehold property with a management company, there are additional disbursements which may be applicable. These fees vary from property and are determined by the landlord or management company. We would not be able to confirm the exact costs until appropriate documentation has been received from the landlord/management company. However, the fees payable usually are:-

Notice of Charge Fee: A This is set out in the lease/transfer. Often the fee is between £50.00 - £100.00

Certificate of Compliance Fee: This fee is payable to the landlord or management company for them to provide the appropriate Land Registry certificate to allow the registration of the new lender. This fee can again be anything from £150.00 - £300.00.
