We live on a complex consisting of Apartments, Town Houses, Semi-detached Villas and Detached Villas. In conversation with a neighbour recently, they said that their Lawyer had advised them that as they have a detached Villa, then they do not come under the auspices of Communual Living and therefore are not subject to Communual living charges as they only apply to Apartments.

Have you come across this interpretation of the Law before?

Hi Alan

No, I haven't. What you need to do is check with the Land Registry - they will be able to advise you what parts of the complex are in common ownership - and the relative sizes of the properties that is used to assess their contributions to the communal fund.

Thanks Nigel, if only going to the Lands Registry and getting an answer was that easy I would try. I'll look into paperwork received from the Developers.
