    Deducing title.

    I am trying a diy lease extension and have served the Section 42 Notice. Things seem to be going ok but one of the paragraphs in the initial response letter from the Landlords solicitor says
    "Kindly treat this letter as our client's request made in accordance with paragraph 4(1) (a) to Schedule 2 of the Leasehold Reform (Collective Enfranchisement and Lease Renewal) Regulations 1993 for you to deduce your title to the subject tenancy.'
    Can anyone tell me what they want and how I should respond? I have owned the flat for 6 years.

    Sols. acting for L simply want you to prove that you own a leasehold interest which qualifies to extend your term. Obtain from HMLR (via LR Direct) copies of your leasehold ownership registration details- title and plan- and send these to sols.

      • Old managing agents accounts
        by jazzythumper
        Since obtaining the RTM and changing the managing agent, we have never been given full accounts / receipts for the previous year(s). We believe that as the old freeholder and leaser holder of one of the flats were represented by the same solicitor that prior to the sale of the freehold, we were subsidising...

        would this be a good starting point?

        As in a simple application to the old managing agent Or freeholder? Which one?

        To provide all accounts and payments based on the fact that we disagree with the charges? How far back can we go? And does having paid the service charges mean we have agreed to these?

        Thanks for...

        It's never advisable , it can cause serious issues if you have a claim affecting communal areas. For buildings insurance the whole property should be covered and the cost split between the two flats.
        The only problem with an absent freeholder is that when selling the flat a pernickity solicitor...

        There is no cast iron rule that the freehold "share" has to be transferred with any sale. You may need to purchase it from the friend (or his estate)....

        Hi there,

        I'm new to the forum and looking for advice on a sticky freehold situation.

        I own a two-bed flat in a converted building with two one-beds. The lease states that a fair proportion is payable towards the service charge. However, there has been a running agreement of...

        I suggest that you ask the other 2 leaseholders to explain why they consider that the current allocation is fair. The freeholder has the right to review the allocation from time to time. Unfortunately, a "fair proportion" means that several alternatives would be considered reasonable to a...

        RTM handing over issues

        Our RTM companies comprise 4 blocks of 6 identical two bedroom flats and each block is registered at Companies House as a separate company.
        Following the acquisition date, it was discovered the former directors ignored legal advice and changed property management companies...

        You appear to have a claim against the freeholder, not the individual companies, who are acting as agent for the freeholder. A Tribunal does not have the jurisdiction to deal with monies which should be handed over, it is a matter for the courts,
