Is Our Block Eligible For Right To Manage?

There are certain criteria that the leaseholders and the block itself must meet before considering Right To Manage. Importantly however, the leaseholders do not have to prove fault or negligence on the part of the current landlord. If the majority of leaseholders are unhappy with the current management, then Right To Manage may well be an option.

JCF Property have been looking after my Property for many years. I recently went with members of my family to inspect it, I am so impressed as to the condition of my Property, and I believe this to be down recently to Helen Warneryd the Property Manager looking after my Property. Helen is always so efficient and professional, combined with a cheery attitude. Nothing is too much trouble, and her advice I find very helpful.
