Do you want the opportunity to control how your property is managed and reduce your costs?
Right to Manage gives leaseholders the opportunity to take over the management of their property and reduce their outgoings.
Freeholders and managing agents are often charging substantial sums on various outgoings and especially insurance. Leaseholders who manage their own buildingn without the help of a managing agents can make substantial savings from freeholders and managing agents as these people often receive commissions. Why not look at the leasehold advisery service by the government that also has useful information, click here.
Right to Manage as your legal right!
Parliament passed legislation to help owners like yourself to have the Right to Manage your property without having to prove fault by your landlord or managing agents and to pay any compensation.
Why claim your Right to Manage?
If you live in a block of flats and do not have any say in who runs the block then you can benefit from the Right to Manage process.
The right is available to flat owners, in all blocks, where they fulfil the following criteria:-
- At least 50% of the flat owners within a physical block of flats must want to go through the process.
- At least two-thirds of the flat owners within the physical block must have long leases (more than 21 years)
- No more than 25% of the property may be used for non-residential use i.e. commercial
If your block fulfils this criteria then it is highly likely that you will be able to go through the Right to Manage process. There are certain legalities that you need to go through, please see our article on this.
There is no need to prove mismanagement by the landlord or current managing agent to implement the right. It just means that you will be taking over the management functions and dealing with items such as:-
- Repairs, redecoration and maintenance of the structure of the building and common parts.
- Services such as lighting, cleaning and gardening.
- Collection of service charge and accounting
- Complying with statutory requirements relating to the management
- The day to day running and management of the block
- Insuring your building
