Howard-
Heh, share of freehold flats if you want a different kind of pain
I should have heeded @Howard advice when i was buying mine years ago, was a PITA to sell even without EWS1
Please can you share the advice? I am buying 1 of 5 flats in a Bristol victorian building. Freehold is owned by a random guy down the street, management of the building is run by the residents. 2 main concerns so far are 1) diddly squat in the sinking fund 2) what if 1/5 of the flats didn't want to pay for something e.g. new roof. Don't think there is a contract on how decisions are made.
