The initial developer is probably bankrupt. The management company attempts to pass the charge to the flat owners (through a protracted series of letters), most of whom now live in the countryside because the rent from the London flat pays the mortgage on their 5 bedroom home in the countryside. They spend 2 years dragging out the process; arguing, challenging. None of the renters get to charge their car until about 2037.
Yay London :-/
- xxpor 6y agoIs there no way to have a special charge to flat owners in the UK? If it's like the US, it'd be through a HOA for the building. If someone wanted to fight it they'd have to go to court. I could imagine a scheme where a bank lends the HOA the money but then deals with the court since dealing with that is much less of a pain for them than the random building HOA president.
