If they piss me off then I'll fook off to my future mansion and put a tenant from hell into my flat

Just mumble to them in Russian then one day meet them with a shaved head......

If you pull off your evil master plan, you could be living here (as well as some other nice places)....

That's how flats work.

How come you didn't know that already?

Oh, and how long do you have left on the lease?

Not if you own a share of the freehold like my other half.

As it's in London I suggested suggested may be worth more more there was an "accidental " fire in the block

Make sure you always get on with your other co-landlords otherwise they will make your life hell over works needing to be done and then when you try to sell the property on.

Yeah I knew, just did not expect the language and text to be so close to tenant/landlord

The good news is that the freehold will be passed to new management company where I get a share, so I'll be 1/8th landlord

Why on earth are you buying a leasehold property?
In a couple of years you'll be on here saying how they've doubled the service charge

Service charges can occur even on freeholds although they will ideally run open-book and not-for-profit. This model seems more common in Scandinavia where each street collectively owns their management company (or collective as one might call it!)

Should be around 999 years lease, though starting date isn't confirmed yet.

Could be 1017 ac

Flats in large blocks are almost always leasehold. Odd that you wouldn't know this as a prospective purchaser, even more odd that you wouldn't know before this stage

[FatLazyContractor]

The lease agreement makes me Tenant with some Landlord still on top

Is the landlord Russian?
