Take control of your building with the Right to Manage
The Right to Manage (RTM) lets leaseholders of flats take over the management of their building from the freeholder — without proving fault and without buying the freehold. It was introduced by the Commonhold & Leasehold Reform Act 2002 and is exercised through an RTM company owned by the leaseholders themselves.
Once acquired, the RTM company takes on repairs, maintenance, insurance, and service charges. Many buildings then use software like OurBloc to run budgets, collect service charges, and stay compliant.
