Director position and lease

[scot22]

Everyone is entitled to maintain their own health. The means of doing so may be disputed but it is a reasonable motivation.

[scot22]

Does your lease specifically state you are not to contribute to roof repairs ?
I assume the roof is also protecting your dwelling.
I assume you are fair and decent man and want to share the burden equally.

I have spent my paid employment life in education , still a school governor. Whatever situation I was in the values and principles stayed the same. This is something you bring.
To OP
Don't take on potential stress if you can get a better return elsewhere.
We are living in a period...

[scot22]

Never knew your experience before. It explains the authority behind your posts which are always worth acting on.

[scot22]

I have 're read the original post and it still seems to me that everything is perfectly reasonable. However, if selling avoid disputes with neighbours.
Block any email address you don't want to receive. Chase up your estate agent and escape asap.

Ram is knowledgeable and experienced. I have learned much from reading his posts. In your position I would be grateful for his help, not saying you're not but in your own interest act.

[scot22]

It is very difficult to have a constructive meeting if there is an unpleasant and negative element present. This will be especially noticeable with a very small number of directors. Stress levels will rocket.
Not sure that he would be any worse than now. Decisions could be made more easil...

[scot22]

If it was caused by the tenant s action without your knowledge or approval they are liable. An incident like this occurred in our building. I posted on law forum. A unanimous decision was tenants liable.

[scot22]

Excellent idea. We had an owner with mobility problems who parked in visitor bay because it is closer. Everyone simply accepted it.

[scot22]

And then repeat the process in the morning ? It appears to me OPs behaviour is perfectly reasonable. I am an unassuming, non confrontational kind of person but I would dig my heels in.

[scot22]

I agree with leaseholders points. I would be amazed if the PIC is allowed to be a director. In my opinion a breach of data protection. Have you complained to Property Redress Scheme.
From what you have said it is disgraceful behavior towards you. Best Wishes for a speedy recovery.

[scot22]

I would get information on outsourcing whatever you can. If he is not a director then not able to be part of Company management. As a shareholder can cause some hassle but will not be involved in decision making between AGMs....

[scot22]

Why not remove him as a director ? Then he will not be able to vote on decisions. Still be a pain but will he ever change whatever. A management company should not act independently of directors.

[scot22]

Point taken and agreed. Surveyor did once suggest asking a contractor. Is that perhaps different ? or for S20 perhaps surveyor ?

[scot22]

As said, may be difficult and relatively expensive to engage agent.
Have you thought about having separate people ? A book keeper or accountant for finances and a trusted builder for maintenance. Work would be delegated but still

[scot22]

Yes, there does appear generally to be a lack of competent, or even incompetent, people willing to take on any responsibility. Thanks.

[scot22]

Oops. It is noticeable on this forum the polite answers given even when someone has made a silly mistake. The lease gives the obligation to be a director of duly elected. Unfortunately people have just remained directors. Personally I think it would be better to ensure rotation. However this has...

[scot22]

Many leases require directors to retire in rotation from the position. Some permit re election. If there is dissatisfaction with a director what are the advantages/disadvantages of allowing that director to continue in the role.? No fixed view and would welcome other opinions.

[scot22]

If you really like the flat then it's worth the effort. I suggest having a look at the LEASE website to find out more about leasing. You get free qualified legal advice and I have always found them excellent.

[scot22]

If you are not happy walk away. Leasehold can be a nightmare.
The freeholder in this situation can take back control at anytime.However, he must be reasonable with any charges or you can take action against him.
How keen are you to buy ? With support from other leaseholders you can get...
