Critical factors affecting the managers of residential long leasehold property have led to the chairman of the Association of Residential Managing Agents (ARMA) being appointed for a third year in office.
Talking to members of the Association at a packed annual general meeting Brett Williams explained why he was offering himself for election for the extra term over the normal two years. “For some while now we have been working on three key step-changes for our sector in the form of mandatory regulation, an OFT-approved redress scheme and nationally recognised standards. I have asked for and received unanimous support from ARMA’s members for the extra time to see these through or make substantial progress before I stand down.”
