104 Rupert Street, Nechells, Birmingham, B7 5DS

BIR/00CN/LIS/2021/0044 · LIS · Birmingham · decided 5 Sep 2022

The tribunal found most of the estimated service charge costs for the year ending 30 September 2022 reasonable, and the provision for roof replacement reasonable in principle, but it did not find the £7,500 reserve fund estimate reasonable because its basis was not clearly defined.
