What happens if I don’t pay my Ground Rent?

If there is a late payment and we have to chase a ground rent debt, we incur costs, which we will recover where your lease or rent charge deed permits. We also reserve the right to approach your mortgage company if you have one, details of which we can obtain from the Land Registry. The mortgage company will normally add their own administration charges in these circumstances. If you dispute the amount of rent claimed, please make a payment for the part which is not disputed together with an explanation of why you dispute the balance. Ultimately, non-payment could lead to forfeiture of your lease and repossession of your property.
