LON/00AQ/LSC/2024/0099 · service charges · Harrow · decided 10 Jul 2025

The tribunal found the 2020 to 2022 service charges partly payable: insurance was disallowed because the policy was not in joint names as the lease requires, and electricity, cleaning and gardening, management fees, legal costs, interest, room rental and drain unblocking were reduced or disallowed.
