Changing Managing Agent

If you are looking for a fresh approach from a locally based specialist firm we can provide the experience and expertise necessary to ensure your block is run smoothly with the minimum of fuss. We are focussed on achieving real and noticeable results to improve your block of flats through dedicated work and regular contact with leaseholders.

Buying Your Freehold

There is legislation in place giving residential long leaseholders the collective right to take over the management of their block either through the Right To Manage provisions in the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002 by forming a right to manage company, or purchasing the freehold of your development through enfranchisement. It is important that you firstly obtain the right advice from a qualified surveyor with experience in this specialist field as there are various procedures and steps to be taken to achieve your aim.

Extending Your Lease

As a long leaseholder of a flat or apartment you have the individual right to a new lease, subject to certain qualifications, of an extra 90 years plus the present unexpired term of years. As a lease becomes shorter it becomes more difficult to raise finance using the flat as security therefore making it more difficult to sell and ultimately affecting the value. There is a formal procedure to be followed and at LPM we have the expertise to guide you all the way.
