Yeah. Good point.A well know company with a public image would react, but a shonky management co. no-one's heard isn't going to give fark, neither are the twiterati.
The Council isn't interested in taking it over!Can echo the comments above: in our first property we gave notice to the management company and each property paid £250 to the council to take it over for life. in our second (new) property now it is a much larger estate so much more difficult to co-ordinate residents. I have to say I find it more than a tad gauling that we have to pay a share of the legal fees so they can take other residents to court for non-payment!
EDIT: this is in Scotland so the rules may be different down south.
I pay about £120 a year in service chargesDo you pay any service charge? If so then serve them notice that you wish to inspect the last years accounts and all the invoices. Should give you a good idea of who is used for what and what they are paid.
That seems to be for lease, we own the houses on the estate so not sure if the rules/regs fit
