“Simarc - Is this legal?”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Stevens499 on 03/05/2019

To anybody thinking of buying a leasehold property, find out who the managing company is first. If it is Simarc, I would highly recommend you avoid them.

One of the biggest issues in the UK is the management of leasehold properties and this company explifies that.

You will be charged extorniate fees without them voluntarily providing proof of payment, receipts, statements, etc. Also they will not give over their bank details to make it easy to pay them.

Every year I have to pay £90 for underletting a flat that I own, for which this company has done nothing other than send out a letter demanding payment. For doing what?

Don't trust them, avoid at all costs!

Hi, I have successfully challenged Simarc over this charge, although they wanted much more from me. You need to check your lease if it is not mentioned in it you don't have to pay it. You can obtain free advice from the lease advisory service, they are very good and all you need to do is book a time with them and then call. Make sure all your letters to them are sent recorded otherwise they will never admit to receiving them.

Thankyou i will do that asap. Did they request a copy of your tenancy agreement? They are asking for £138 initial fee with a rolling £90 thereafter.
