Take control. Run the block. Save thousands.

Most blocks are up and running on the platform within a few weeks. The bigger question is when your existing managing agent's notice period ends, which is typically three months. The platform gives you everything you need to manage the handover smoothly, so nothing falls through the cracks.

No. The whole platform is designed so a block can run itself without one. Some blocks choose to bring in specialists for specific tasks, such as an accountant for year-end filings, and use the platform for everything else. The choice is yours.

You serve them notice. Our Handover Preparation Helper gives you a complete checklist of what needs to happen before and after notice is served, covering insurance, budgets, company filings, and full compliance, so nothing is missed.

Absolutely. The platform doesn't lock you into anyone. Use the contractors you know and trust, or use Quote Hunter to compare new options side by side. You're in control of every decision.

Every leaseholder in the building can sign up, add their property details, and join the Building Forum. They can see what's being spent, weigh in on decisions, raise issues, and propose initiatives. Total transparency, total participation.

Yes. All building data, including leases, certificates, accounts, and contracts, is stored securely with encryption at rest and in transit. Only verified residents of your building can access your block's information.

Our team is on hand whenever you need us. Whether it's a question about the platform, a tricky compliance issue, or a decision your block is weighing up, we're here to help.

Right to Manage (RTM) is a legal right that lets leaseholders take over the management of their building from the freeholder, without having to buy the freehold. You form an RTM company, serve notice on the freeholder, and from a set date your block runs its own management.

Your building needs at least two flats. At least two-thirds of the flats must be held by qualifying tenants (leaseholders with leases originally granted for more than 21 years, plus some other criteria), and at least half of the qualifying tenants must take part in the claim. The building must also be at least 50% residential. No more than half of the internal floor area can be commercial.

Around four to six months from start to finish, depending on how quickly the freeholder responds and whether they raise any challenges. Most claims go through without significant pushback.

Our Guided Right to Manage pack starts from £59 per flat for three months of support and access, with free Company Incorporation included. Larger blocks (over 20 flats) should get in touch for custom pricing.

For most straightforward RTM claims, no. Our guided process handles the notices, paperwork, and legal templates you need. If your case is unusual or the freeholder mounts a serious challenge, we can refer you to a specialist solicitor.

Collective Enfranchisement is the legal right for leaseholders to club together and buy the freehold of their building. Once you own the freehold, you can manage the block yourselves, grant lease extensions, stop paying ground rent, and change lease terms, for example lifting restrictions on pets or alterations.

Your building needs at least two flats. At least two-thirds of the flats must be held by qualifying tenants (leaseholders with leases originally granted for more than 21 years, plus some other criteria), and at least half of the qualifying tenants must take part. The building must also be at least 75% residential. No more than 25% of the internal floor area can be commercial.

Typically six to twelve months, sometimes longer if the freeholder disputes the valuation. Most of that time is spent on valuation and negotiation rather than legal back-and-forth.

Our Guided Collective Enfranchisement pack starts from £119 per flat for six months of support and access, with free Company Incorporation included. On top of that, you'll need to compensate the freeholder for the value of the freehold itself. The amount depends on your building. Our Freehold Cost Estimator gives you a clear upfront figure before you commit.

Our guided process handles most of the legal steps, but Collective Enfranchisement is more complex than RTM, and some stages benefit from specialist input. We'll refer you to a solicitor at the right moment if your case needs one.

You'll have the option to request a surveyor's valuation at the point of making your offer. A formal valuation establishes what the freehold is worth and what you'll pay. We'll connect you with a qualified surveyor at the right moment, so you have an accurate, defensible figure to negotiate with.
