There are a number of different ways flat owners in a block can solidify their association. You must decide which is right for you, to achieve your desired outcome – such as having more engagement with the Freeholder and in how your building is managed.
Choosing the right type of owners’ organisation to suit your block’s specific needs, structure and priorities can be complicated. Will you need to form a flat management company? And if so, what type, and how do you get started?
The options each have their own pros, cons, powers and procedures:
Our seasoned Company and Commercial team can assess your needs, advise on the choice of incorporation and help you with the forms, registrations, procedures and due diligence.
We can also advise on your rights and responsibilities under any formal (or informal) structure, as well as compliance matters and constitution.
Once formed, flat management companies can get additional support via membership to the Federation of Private Residents Associations (FPRA): a not-for-profit advice, support and lobbying organisation for such companies.
Leaseholders also have the right to be consulted in relation to service charges and can form a recognised Tenants’ Association.
