Developer threatening to quit

Hi Nigel

The developer of a complex where I own an apartment is threatening to cease maintenance due to a number of non payers. Separate title deeds are available although I suspect that many owners have not yet paid for these.

I also suspect that no one in the complex will want to take over and form a committee. If this is the case, my understanding is the Land Registry will appoint someone to manage the complex. Is this correct and if so who arranges this?

Thanks

Brian

Hi Brian,

Here is the form requesting the Director of the Lands Office to appoint a temporary committee.

Remember that he people appointed will need to be paid - so it's likely that your charges will rise considerably if you go down this route.

Best to organise the committee amongst yourselves (as required by the law).
