Your Property Problem
Tell us what has happened and send the right documents. A focused enquiry helps us give you a faster, more useful response.
Is your service charge too high or unexplained?
Send the lease, service-charge demands, relevant accounts or budgets, important invoices if available, Section 20 notices and the main correspondence with the landlord or managing agent.
Identify the items you dispute and explain why. A focused schedule of challenged items is more useful than a general statement that everything is too expensive.
Are repairs being ignored?
Send the lease, photographs and reports, a short chronology, correspondence reporting the problem and the response from the landlord, management company or managing agent.
Have you received a major-works demand?
Send all consultation notices, estimates or specifications, the demand and explanatory papers, relevant reserve-fund information, the lease and objections already made.
Is the block being badly managed?
Prepare a short dated chronology of the repeated failures and link each important complaint to the document, photograph, account or report supporting it. A focused evidence-based history is usually more useful than hundreds of unorganised emails.
Do leaseholders want greater control?
Tell us:
- —the number of flats;
- —the number of leaseholders who may participate;
- —whether the building contains commercial premises;
- —who owns the freehold;
- —who presently manages the building;
- —whether any formal notices have been served.
Right-to-manage and appointment-of-manager procedures are different. The statutory conditions and the outcome sought must be examined before a route is chosen.
Do you already have Tribunal proceedings?
Send the application, response, directions, hearing notice, statements, expert evidence and any previous decision. State the next deadline at the top of the enquiry.
