Reply to Freehold shared parking question

by Neeeeeeeeeek10

Hi, many thanks for looking at this, it's much appreciated. The wording is exactly as in the deeds, "To use forecourt for access for parking not more than one vehicle there on" is exactly as written. It's a 100 year plus building which was converted in the sixtys? Maybe? Not sure if that helps!...

There are only a few spaces so it isn't allocated and only the flats that have it in the deeds can park in them. The person who owns the freehold to the shared areas and I assume the...

Buying freehold from absent foreign freeholder

by Dan350

We live in a small block of flats where all the leases have about 90 years left to run. All the leaseholders now want to join together to buy the freehold, but this is difficult because it is owned by a foreign company. The latter’s UK lawyer died a few years ago, and no one has been appointed to...

Reply to S146 manipulation

by AndrewDod

If a freeholder incurs costs that a court does not say are recoverable from D, nor are they recoverable under the lease, then FH bears those costs out of their own pocket, or claims them from the "crook" (D). No reason other lessees should pay.

FTT would not be the first port...

Reply to Buying freehold from absent foreign freeholder

by Dan350

Many thanks, it's encouraging to hear that placing an ad in the local press of the country where the freeholder's company is based might be sufficient to demonstrate to the FTT that we've done all we can to track the freeholder down. I'll get in touch with LEASE for further advice....
