Administration and other fees are payable by our home owners for specific services or transactions. They're not included as part of any service charges you pay. You may also be liable to cover our legal costs.
Fees are generally payable on application, with some exceptions. On enquiry you’ll be advised what’s payable, when payment is due and if there are any other related fees to be considered.
The table below outlines our fees only, and not any third-party legal fees that may also be required.
Costs are inclusive of VAT unless otherwise stated.
