@Eddiemon I have a question you may be able to help with. 2 yrs ago I bought a ground floor flat (leasehold). There is a flat above us and the owner of that is the freeholder for the whole house (thats our flat and theirs).
When we purchased we took out building insurance Which we have had continuously. We had an email from the freeholder saying they have purchased building insurance for the whole building and invoiced us for half the monies. There is nothing in my lease about this and initial phone calls suggest my mortgage co, insurance co and solicitors are happy/ non commital regarding me just having insurance for my flat. My question is does the freeholder have legal power to request I pay for building insurance? I want to tell the freeholder tough thet should have checked with me b4 buying insurance I dont need.
Cheers
