Can RMC breach the lease in good cause?

by aardvaark

For a few years, to keep the service charge down, our RMC has externally re-decorated every 7 years instead of every 5, as stipulated by the lease.

Reply to Advice on claim for legal expenses by landlord over missing Ground Rent

by Covent Garden Girl

The lease probably has a clause which has an "address for service" and if they sent the demands to that address, then they will have served them appropriately. Realistically, you should have organised to collect post from the flat, if the flat address is the address for service, or set...

Reply to Can RMC breach the lease in good cause?

by Lawcruncher

If you lose you also pay the tenant's solicitor's costs, which could be thousands. Please bear in mind that the starting point here is that the RMC is not complying with its obligations as set out in the lease. There has to be an assumption that you will be lucky to win.

Reply to RTM Company Member Incorporation

by Gordon999

Where is the law to say Membership can be anything ? The service charge account is funded by the leaseholders and leaseholders collectively should always keep the service charge account under their control.
