I am following Leaseholderandwers advice and currently looking for an RICS or ARMA registered property manager.
I have come to question why such criteria is needed (please don't shoot me!)
Last year we experienced many problems with our RICS accredited manager (no response to phone calls, letters, neglect of section 20, poor management, poor running of contracts etc).
I followed their complaint procedure and also complained to RICS. RICS took over 6 weeks to investigate only to write that they had found nothing wrong (despite sending them a lot of evidence).
I have just spoken to a potential managing agent, they are not registered with RICS or ARMA and said they handle a lot of blocks which used to be managed by accredited managers and who received a poor service.
So RICS / ARMA - what is the point?
