What does the energy label C mean for this home?

What is the leasehold situation for this property?

The ground rent has been paid off until 15 September 2060, so there are no annual leasehold payments to make until that date. After that, the situation would depend on the municipality's policy at the time.
What is the foundation risk for this address?
The foundation risk indication for this address is medium. This is an area-level indication based on public data, not an inspection of this specific home. The building dates from 1936, and the entire postcode area falls within a KCAF attention zone because all properties were built before 1970. This means the risk level applies to the area as a whole, not to this particular apartment.
