I’m home hunting now and am weighing up the convenience of a flat over the responsibility of a house. I figure the latter takes more looking after.
Every block of flats / apartments is listed as coming with an additional service charge. They’re varying from £60 a month to £150! That’s quite the bill on top of everything else.
I’m assuming they’re standard? Are they worth it? They clean your windows, take care of the rubbish and tidy the communal gardens. Some have a concierge service too.
I just don’t want to be overpaying for something I shouldn’t have to. I’d sooner go for a house otherwise.
Help?!
