Quick question -
Is there much difference in cost between buying the freehold vs a lease extension?
I'm in a conversion where we have two flats, both leasehold through Hyde (who are pretty fucking useless) and the monthly service charge increased from £25 to £100 due to a £3000 fire inspection test which clearly is a made up number from some firm fleecing us and who is probably owned by Hyde.
Anyway, as they are useless we've considered buying the freehold so any ideas on how to cost?
