Right to Manage: a guide for landlords
Disputing the claim
You can dispute the claim by serving a counter-notice to the Right to Manage (RTM) company. In it, you must give reasons why you think the company is not entitled to manage the building.
You can dispute the claim if you think:
- the building does not qualify
- the RTM company does not comply with the legal requirements
- the RTM company members do not represent half the flats in the building
You cannot dispute the claim for any other reason.
Leasehold Valuation Tribunal
If the members of the RTM company think you’re wrong, the company must apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal (LVT) within 2 months of the date of the counter-notice. The LVT will then decide if the RTM company can manage the building.
