Owning your own home

Um, so, I've had an offer accepted on this place. Suddenly thinking to myself: "What's the catch?".

The agent said that it's being sold as leasehold, then the freehold will be handed over to the three flats after that - they'll have to pay legal costs but there's no charge for the freehold.

So that's a concern.

Also the smell of damp.

Advice, anyone? Bit nervous.

Looks quite nice though Sparky.

No idea about the freehold your solicitor will be able to help with that or someone with experience of this on here.

Has the house been empty for a long time? That could contribute to the smell.
