22 Oakwood Court, London N21 4JY
LON/00AK/LSC/2019/0254 · service charges · Enfield · decided 1 Oct 2019
The tribunal found the leaseholder was not liable to pay the insurance charges for 2018/19 and 2019/20 because the landlord had not insured in joint names as the lease requires, and it also ordered that no administration charges arise from non-payment, that the landlord cannot recover its tribunal costs through the service charge, and that the landlord must refund the £100 fee.
