Floored by ground rent demand
Episode 22 of 45
A 90-year-old is shocked by a £17,000 ground rent bill on the flat he’s owned for 50 years. Plus the online marketplace being abused by scammers.
Julia Somerville, Gloria Hunniford and the team hear from residents of a block of flats in Hertfordshire who say they were left shocked when the annual ground rent on their leasehold flats shot up from £25 to £1,800, leaving one 90-year-old with a £17,000 bill he says he just couldn’t pay. Plus the online marketplace being abused by scammers, leaving a mum and daughter scrambling to recover more than £400. And will new changes to microchipping rules lead to more owners being reunited with lost pets?
