  1. i own a flat in a shared building, 4 leasehold flats in total .. we were sent a service charge demand just to cover insurance costs (new owner just took over & sorted out insurance first) the demand had an added 15% charge for management costs .. the new freeholder/landlord had shopped around & got us a very good price ... I paid mine & so did 2 other leaseholders, there was 1 leaeholder that did not pay the 15% charge, he paid the costs for the insurance as per his percentage of the lease, but he said he did not have to pay the management fee as it was variable? & also that his 2 demands per year should be a minimum of £250 each .. this demand was less as it only covered insurance !! Is he just trying to get away with it & legaly he has to pay? not really fair on the rest of us (who did not mind the charge) ..

  2. Can my landlord charge for administration on my ground rent demand ... I have a set ground rent of £25 per year .. I have a demand for £28.75 .. I dont mind paying the extra .. but is this within his rights? The demand is just for the ground rent .. also does he have to include a legal statement of my rights as a leaseholder, im sure what he has added is outdated, it reads 'for the purpose of the landlord & tenant act 1987 section 47/48 etc...
