Peppercorn lease
A 'peppercorn' lease exists whereby in many cases a long lease of 999 years was granted when the property was built. Usually a small annual fee is payable in the form of a Peppercorn Ground Rent which has no increase date agreed. Usually no service charge is payable and no increase date is set. As we are not leasehold specialists, clarification regarding lease terms, length and any associated charges should be sought via legal advice. We would however advise that this is very common place and normal in this area and not something that we have seen affects value or future sale ability.
