Under the Section - 79 of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002, the Claim Notice informing your landlord of your intentions can only be served:
  • at least 14 days after the Notice Inviting Participation
  • once membership of ther RTM company has reached more than 50% of qualifying leaseholders

The notice must be sent to the landlord, any third parties (such as an appointed managing agent) and all qualifying leaseholders in the block. Once again, you can post this notice or, where appropriate, serve it in person.

It must contain the date by which you require the landlord (or other recipients) to respond - allowing no less than 28 days to consider the claim.

If none of the relevant parties disputes the claim, then the the likely acquisition date for the Right to Manage is a further four months after the issue date of the Claim Notice. It may be worth considering, therefore, the timing of your initial Claim Notice to avoid busy periods, bank holidays and so on.

We can search the HM Land Registy to confirm the legal identity of your landlord. (£60 + VAT).

We can provide an up-to-date Claim Notice form and advise you as necessary. (£60 + VAT).

Remember - as a Complete Service Customer you would receive the Participation Notice stationery and HM land registry search as part of your inclusive RTM package.
