Communal Facilities Fee Explained

The Communal Facilities Fee (CFF) at The Sidings is a fee payable upon the sale of your home or if there is a change of occupier so you can enjoy the facilities now but pay for them later.

This fee ensures that homeowners can enjoy the use of our first-class communal facilities, today and in the future. It contributes towards:

The construction and provision of the communal facilities across the retirement community, including the restaurant, homeowners’ lounge and coffee lounge, hair salon, therapy suite, guest suite and activities studio
Regular replacement and refurbishment of all these communal facilities, the exterior of the building, restaurant kitchen equipment and facilities, lifts, roof, private homeowner parking and also your patio or balcony structure
Adlington will use these funds to refurbish or replace all communal parts of The Sidings to the highest standards whenever required. Not only will this ensure it is a quality place to live, but...

Communal Facilities Fee

How the fee is calculated

You do not have to pay anything until you choose to sell your apartment (or there is a change of occupier). The fee is 4% per annum, capped at 5 years (maximum 20%) of the achieved market price (or an agreed market valuation of the property) per year or part year of occupation.

For example:

If a property has been owned for 3 years and 7 months and sold for £300,000 the fee payable is £48,000
Or, if a property has been owned for 10 years and 3 months and sold for £300,000, the fee payable is £60,000
Should you wish to pay for the CFF on your apartment at point of purchase, you are able to do so at a reduced rate of 15% of the price you pay for your apartment. This is only available to the first purchaser of any apartment.

An Administration Fee is payable on resale of the property. This is currently £500 + VAT.
