Court-appointed manager
Take me straight to 'court-appointed manager' help »
What's a court appointed manager?
A 'court-appointed manager' is a manager apointed by the leasehold valuation tribunal (LVT) under the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002
It is preferable to claim the 'right to manage' (RTM) your property rather than requesting the court to appoint a manager for you because:
- with RTM you do not need to prove that your current landlord is at fault
- there is no burden on RTM to compile evidence
- proceedings are generally quicker and less costly
However, you may need a court-appointed manager because:
- you cannot get the required support to claim your right to manage (51%)
- the freeholder is obstructive and owns flats making your claim to RTM difficult
What evidence is required?
To get a court-appointed manager you'll need evidence. In previous cases we have addressed issues such as:
- Breach of the 'keep carpeted clause' in the lease
- Breach of lease - non-compliance with statue/bye-laws specifically building regulations
- Breach of statute - failure to produce accounts, there being more than 4 dwellings in the block

My 30+ years of practical property and senior managerial experience has involved me in all types of properties from major historical London Estates to complex modern mixed use schemes both within prime central London and beyond. Over the years I have probably encountered most block management issues and both personally and through my teams have strategically managed solutions. The momentum of continuous improvement both here at Ringley and that is building within our sector makes it an exciting time to be in Property Management.
