It sounds as though you’ve made your mind up!
The service charges will only go up, and you will have to find one that takes pets.
I think though that some places let you put off paying the service charges until the apartment is sold ( presumably when you die or need to sell to go into a nursing home) , bear in mind that they are sometimes difficult to sell for a good price.
Apart from that good luck!

I have sold my house and am thinking of buying a retirement flat on the Welsh coast. I have a little Yorkshire terrier and not sure if it’s a good idea the high service charges and how tolerant they would be with my dog.
