Thanks for the reply Jeffrey, succinct and knowledgeable as ever. Jacki

After taking, and winning, county court actions against a leaseholder many times over the last 10 years I have finally got a CCJ recorded against him. Over the years he always paid my claims just in time to avoid going on the default register and in doing so avoided having a CCJ recorded against...

I hope so, though I can't confirm it, your information takes me beyond my knowledge. Looks like I've got some serious reading and learning to do. Does the fact that we have had so many court hearings, which I have won, indicate my paperwork is probably correct. We had a CC hearing where the...

Thanks Jeffrey Jacki

Dear Jeffrey Thank you for your comprehensive reply, The debt for which I have the CCJ is for buildings insurance (£600), ground rent (£50), property repair (£100), court fee's (£400) our admin charge (£60) all for the year Jan' 2015-6. All figures are approximate. Would you say that c. is the...

Thank you Jeffrey, three very useful ideas. To which Building Society department should the request/demand be sent? Jacki

I am a freeholder of a flat, the leaseholder owes me approx £1200 in insurance, court fee's and interest and I have a CCJ for this amount. I have pursued the leaseholder through the County Court, First Tier Court, and back to the County Court and won every time. I have used the Sheriff's office...

Thanks again Jeffrey, I'll leave you in peace now. Jacki

A supplemental question if I may Jeffrey. I have a £350 excess on the insurance, would the G be expected to pay half the cost of the excess in the event of a claim? Thank You Jacki

Thank you once again Jeffrey for the sound advice. Jacki

Thank you for the information Jeffrey, you're most helpful. My builder accepts it was their fault entirely and is very apologetic about it and wishes to make it right, but G is a very difficult person to deal with and compensation looms large in his view of the matter. He is talking about...

I am the freeholder of a pair of maisonettes (one above the other) I'm also the owner of the 1st floor flat which is unoccupied. I am having my flat completely refurbished by a multi-trades builder prior to selling it. He employs the trades (plasterer, plumber, electrician etc) as needed. The...

Thanks for the info' Jeffrey Regards, Jacki

I’m a Freeholder who is suing a leaseholder for non-payment of his residential buildings insurance. We both attended a County Court hearing in Oct’ 2016 and the judge put a “stay” on the case and referred it to the First Tier Property Tribunal for a decision on whether I had properly interpreted...

Thanks very much for the advice Jeffrey, I will do that. Mr D has said he will only allow a survey "between 8-9am on a Friday with 4 weeks notice" and that he may have work commitments that mean he may cancel the appointment at short notice. Surveyors are, quite rightly, reluctant to take this...

I own and let a first floor maisonette that has an internal rear staircase down to the rear garden. The garden is shared with the Gnd floor leaseholder (I am also the Freeholder of both flats). I learned that the supporting wall for my tenants’ rear internal staircase, which is in the lower...
