How to Incorporate a Flat Management Company - What is a Property Management Company?

. One important role is that of acting as liaison between the landlord and tenant. Duties of property management companies include accepting rent, responding to and addressing maintenance issues, advertising vacancies for landlords, and doing credit and background checks on tenants. In exchange for the service they provide, property management companies charge landlords a percentage of the gross rent collected each month (typically 3-10%), in addition to lease commissions. In addition to managing income and expense related activity, property managers may also manage construction, development, repair and maintenance on a property. The direction / choreography of repair/maintenance is quite a large part of a property manager's function. Property manager relations with Tenants gives a face to the Landlord and provides them the necessary buffer servicing their desire to profit and distance themselves from their tenant constituency.

UK FLAT MANAGEMENT COMPANY INCORPORATION SERVICE. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY FORMATION IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

A property management company set up under the Companies Act to operate for the benefit of residents or tenants rather than being run as a business for profit is generally known as a "flat management" or "property management" company. Many types of multi-occupancy development, but particularly residential ones, need such a company and they account for a large number of the companies on the register at Companies House.

A flat management company usually has special Memorandum and Articles of Association drawn up to allow it to own, manage and administer a freehold property, which is normally divided into several dwelling units or flats, with each leaseholder owning a share in the company. The leaseholder is normally obliged to transfer ownership of the share to a new leaseholder if the property is disposed. In cases where there are several tenants flat management companies are sometimes formed to manage and protect the interest of the persons holding leases.

This type of vehicle can take the shape of a company with limited liability company status or as a company limited by guarantee. We have a wealth of experience in both forming and structuring flat management companies and can advise you on whether this type of vehicle is suitable for your needs.

A Flat Management Company is normally incorporated to manage a property or group of properties where there are multiple tenants. Flat management companies often permit lessees of individual plots within the development to acquire an interest in the company, usually being a single share with or without voting rights. As with any other company, a flat management company must appoint directors and a company secretary. As a flat management company will ordinarily be a private company the requirement is for one director and one company secretary.
