Answer: Let’s start by asking you some questions:
Do you know how to ask for service charges in a way that makes their collection lawful?
Do you know when and how to implement the Section 20 Consultation procedure in connection with service charge expenditure?
Do you understand what your lease permits as service chargeable and how it requires you account for service charges?
These and many other similar issues are part of daily life for managing agents. Not being aware of them could lead to service charges being uncollectable or expenditure having to be returned to leaseholders.
