Hi everyone. I wonder if someone could advise me please?
I own 2 leasehold flats in a converted house. There are only 2 flats in total but I do not own any of the freehold. I have just been informed by the freeholder (a property company based miles away) that they intend to appoint a management agent. I would rather this doesn't happen as I believe it will result in unnecessary expense for me. In the past, the freeholder has been happy for me to do all maintenance myself and not get involved. There is provision in the lease for the freeholder to add a 10% fee to any expenses submitted for payment to the service charge fund. However, I never submit these invoices as the total service charge fund is payable by me. This system has run very well for years. I note that one of the directors of the management company is also the freeholders son. Would i be within my rights to apply for an RTM?
Many thanks
