Block Management & Right To Manage

Complete Property Management are highly experienced in the Right to Manage (RTM) process. As a Block Management company, we have an excellent track record for resolving issues inherited from past agents and landlords. One way to ensure this is possible is by using the RTM process (as defined by the 2002 Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act). The RTM process allows leaseholders to join together and take responsibility and control of the management from the landlord. The responsibilities of any RTM company will normally be outlined within your lease but can include the following: setting of service charge budgets, major works and Section 20 consultation, housekeeping standards, and most importantly for many of our clients, the administration of buildings insurance. From our experience clients have benefitted from large savings on areas such as buildings insurance cover. Savings of over 50% on insurance have been achieved as well as other cost effective solutions.

Complete are experienced as apartment block and estate managers. This experience allows a professional & cost effective service to any RTM client. If you would like to discuss how we can resolve the issues and save you money, please complete the contact us form and we will call you at your convenience any time of the day.

Right To Manage (RTM)

The Commonhold and Leasehold reform Act 2002 allows leasehold tenants to remove the company which manages their block and replace it with a better management company. This process can be difficult to complete without the help of a professional company to guide you through the process.

Why take your Right to Manage?

If you live in a block of flats and do not have a say in who runs that block then you can benefit from the Right to Manage Process. The right is available to all flat-owners, in all blocks, where they fulfil the following criteria:

  1. At least 50% of the flat-owners within the physical block of flats must want to go through the process.
  2. At least 66% of the flat-owners within the physical block must have long leases (greater than 21 years at the time of issue).
  3. No more than 25% of the block may be used for non-residential use (excludes car parks and common areas connected with the flats).

If your block fulfils these criteria then it is highly likely you will be able to go through the Right To Manage process with 100% success. There are a small number of technical legalities which can prevent some blocks going through the right to manage process and so you should discuss this with us beforehand so we can advise whether to progress your claim as one right to manage claim or several for your complex.

If you find you are ineligible for the Right To Manage legislation, but are having problems with your managing agent, please contact the Lease Advisory Service who can provide valuable help and guidance on all matters relating to leasehold property.
