Residential Service Charge Not Due on Technicality
Landlord and Tenant
In the case of Beitov Properties Ltd v Elliston Bentley Martin [2012], The Upper Tribunal (Lands Chamber) ruled that service charges were not due as the demands did not contain the Landlord’s address.
Service charge demands must be made in compliance with the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987. Demands that do not comply may therefore become void on a technicality.
