| Block Management |
We can assist Managing
Agents in connection with the recovery of service
charge arrears, including the use of Section 146
Notices, applications to the Court for Section 81
determinations and Forfeiture Proceedings. We have
experience in relation to other claims for breach
of covenant and difficulties regarding communal
parts, potential licences, adverse possession and
other types of property litigation that Managing
Agents encounter from time to time.
Our non-contentious colleagues can assist Managing
Agents in the preparation of Licences to Assign,
Licences for Alterations and other such documentation.
Lessees of blocks of flats often wish to take part
in an acquisition of the freehold to their building.
The Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002, when
it becomes law, will introduce the idea of Commonhold
and extend Lessees’ rights beyond those already
enjoyed by reason of the Leasehold Reform Housing
and Urban Development Act 1993 and other legislation
that currently enables Lessees to acquire an interest
in the Freehold. This can be of great assistance
if the freeholders are failing to comply with their
obligations. We can assist Lessees in their efforts
to acquire the freehold to their building.
We can also assist Lessees in connection with any
disputes regarding services charges and any Forfeiture
Proceedings that Landlords may threaten. |
