4 situations in which the management company comes up during a conveyancing transaction, each answering a different question.
- Taking over the management of the buildingThe right to manage lets qualifying leaseholders take control of the building without buying the freehold. What it gets you, what it does not, and where it leads.
- The landlord company is insolvent or has been dissolvedA company search showing the landlord insolvent or struck off. Why conveyancers advise against proceeding without cover, what lenders make of it, and what it does to a resale.
- The management company has been struck off, or is close to itA management company that stops filing accounts can be removed from the register, taking the building's maintenance and insurance arrangements with it. Why reinstating it is expensive.
- A certificate of compliance is needed before the purchase can be registeredA restriction on the title means the Land Registry will not register you as owner until the landlord or management company certifies that the lease requirements have been met.
