Looks that way. We just assumed, what with it being a fuck off house and all. Solicitor flagged it up. We went back and looked at the OG listing, no mention of it, EA never mentioned it either.

Sorry to hear that. Cheeky fuckers.
You'd think it would never work but I've been listening to Moneybox about these people up north who bought new builds that were not only leasehold (the insanity) but the ground rent doubled every ten or even five years.
The number of conveyancing solicitors who either didn't spot that or didn't think it worth mentioning to their clients is shocking. Now they can't sell because who'd want it but also many lenders won't lend against properties with onerous ground rent clauses.
What era is the house from?

A fair assumption. Go after the agent for any costs you’ve incurred. The fact it’s leasehold should have been declared.

Houses with leasehold can get fucked.
How come it took you so long to realise? They try to sneak it under the radar?
