A freehold management company has been formed to manage a small block of six units. The original lease provided for six allocated car parking spaces and six visitors spaces to be used on a first come first served basis. Can the new company now allocate the visitors spaces to residents?
Flat Living replies: The original lease will still form the framework that should be followed, however as the freeholder you now have the ability to alter the lease, as required. We would suggest using a solicitor that has experience with making changes to leases, as the procedure can be quite complex. We have a number of experienced companies in our Directory.
