In addition to the notices sometime the lease may require a deed of covenant and therefore you may need to prepare a deed of Covenant

Reply to Share of feehold/shared service charges?

by Flashback1966

Confused. Did you extend the lease or buy the Frehold?

In my opinion, if the Freehold was purchased, it should...

Reply to Old managing agents accounts

by jazzythumper

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).

Reply to Old managing agents accounts
