I wouldn’t recommend the RTMF company…

I wouldn’t
recommend the RTMF company for any Right to Manage services. This company is not worth the name. They are not legal professionals as they pretend to be. A few months ago I commissioned their services to help me with applying for Right to Manage (RTM) for the leasehold property that I share with other tenants. Together, we paid the fees for the RTMF to process our Right To Manage. A few months down the line, the other tenants changed their mind and said they didn’t want to go ahead with the process because they had information that the RTMF agents are not legal professionals. I subsequently contacted the RTMF company for an update and to request a possible refund. After chasing them many times for a response, they told me our RTM claim file has been closed. We didn’t know they had closed our case😕! The case handler never informed us of the closure. I wrote back to them for a clarification as of why they closed our file. I never had a response.
It is well known that in this country, the leasehold property sector is rigged & controlled by cowboys and unscrupulous legal traders whose only purpose is to rip leaseholders off with unjustified fees. The RTMF company is one of them. Stay away from this company !!!

We categorically reject the misleading account in this review, particularly the unfounded allegations against our integrity and conduct.

We welcome genuine criticism and recognise that clients may be disappointed when a Right to Manage (RTM) claim does not achieve its intended outcome. But dissatisfaction does not justify misrepresenting events or accusing a business of dishonesty.

For the benefit of readers, these are the documented facts.

RTMF was instructed in October 2024 to establish an RTM company and progress a claim for a block of seven flats.

Three leaseholders subsequently withdrew their support, but four remained willing to proceed, meeting the statutory participation threshold.

We carried out Land Registry searches, prepared the articles of association, incorporated the RTM company, prepared its membership register, served the statutory invitation to participate and prepared the notice of claim. Any suggestion that we took payment without progressing the instruction is false.

The notice of claim could not be served because another RTM company already existed for the same premises. In our assessment, this was a significant legal obstacle, not a situation created by RTMF. We repeatedly explained the issue and the need to resolve it before proceeding. This generated extensive additional work and correspondence for which we made no further charge.

The review also gives a misleading impression of how the matter ended. The company incorporated by RTMF was compulsorily struck off the Companies House register following the failure to file its annual confirmation statement. RTMF did not initiate that strike-off. Reminders had been issued and the statutory strike-off notice was forwarded to the directors in February 2026. Our administrative claim file was subsequently closed. Closing our file and dissolving a company are entirely different things.

When a refund was requested, we reviewed the case and provided a detailed written chronology on 23 September 2026, setting out the work completed, the obstacle to serving the claim and why we did not consider a refund appropriate. We provided further clarification on 25 September. The suggestion that we offered no explanation is therefore inaccurate.

Importantly, in our final email of 25 September 2026, we expressly offered to assist in progressing the claim through the original RTM company, stating:

This offer received no response. It demonstrates our continued willingness to assist the leaseholders in achieving their original objective, despite the complications encountered. It is particularly disappointing that this constructive offer has been entirely omitted from the review

We take particular exception to the accusation that RTMF is among unscrupulous traders whose purpose is to “rip leaseholders off” through unjustified fees. This is a serious and offensive allegation against our honesty and professional integrity. It is unsupported by the facts, and we reject it unequivocally.

Substantial work was undertaken, statutory documents were prepared, and considerable additional time was devoted to complications involving a separate RTM company. The fact that a claim did not proceed to completion does not render that work worthless or the fees dishonest.

We respect clients' right to express dissatisfaction. We equally reserve the right to challenge false allegations that damage our reputation.

We stand by our work, our correspondence and our professional conduct, and reserve all rights concerning publication of these allegations.

My experience with this firm has unfortunately been disappointing.

Updated Review

My initial experience with RTMF had left me disappointed regarding communication and my understanding of the scope of their role as company secretary to our RTM company.

I am a leaseholder and member of an RTM company covering a residential development of 67 flats. I had previously contacted RTMF asking for important correspondence concerning the affairs of our RTM company to be retained on the company record. When my initial email was not acknowledged, I became concerned about the level of engagement available to individual RTM members.

Following a further exchange of correspondence, however, RTMF has today ( 14th August 2026)provided me with a detailed explanation of its role.

They clarified that their responsibilities include providing the registered office, maintaining the statutory registers of members, directors and secretaries, retaining minutes and resolutions supplied by the company, and preparing and filing the relevant statutory documents. They also explained the distinction between statutory company records and general correspondence concerning the day-to-day management of the building.

Importantly, RTMF confirmed that my recent correspondence will be retained on their own file and forwarded to the RTM directors.

I also sought clarification regarding whether RTMF would provide the same company-secretarial assistance if RTM members were in future to submit a valid Section 303 requisition concerning the appointment or removal of directors. RTMF confirmed that they would deal with the statutory procedure in the same way as they had previously.

Although I would have preferred this clarification at the outset, I appreciate that RTMF ultimately took the time to provide a detailed response and clarify its position.

I therefore consider it fair to update my original review to reflect their response and the clarification I have now received.

RTM Process

We engaged RTMF to do a right to manage for us and everything went well. They did everything they said, kept us in the loop and we took management in July.

Cowboys :)

If you want your Right to Manage claim to turn into a multi-year saga of dithering, missed opportunities, and endless excuses, RTMF is the perfect choice.

We instructed RTMF in good faith in 2023 to facilitate our RTM. We warned them, clearly and in good time, about a discrepancy in the freeholder’s identity — something critical to the claim. Despite this, they failed to take timely corrective action. Now, in 2025, our RTM remains in limbo.

RTMF’s approach has been to tie our case to unrelated appeals, introducing even more delay, while refusing to provide full disclosure of documents we paid for and need to make informed decisions. They blame clients for “choosing” to wait, even when the decision was heavily shaped by their own advice.

When challenged, their default response is denial of any fault and a threat that they will “robustly defend” themselves. Meanwhile, they hold critical company access and records hostage unless leaseholders retract any suggestion of poor service. This is not the conduct of a transparent or client-focused organisation.

After years of “representation,” we are worse off than when we started — with no RTM, mounting costs, and a likely need to restart the entire process from scratch.

If you value timely action, clear accountability, and honest communication, look elsewhere. In our experience, RTMF has delivered the opposite at every turn.

Antwort von RTMF

Your review misrepresents the facts. RTMF issued this claim in a timely and efficient manner. The Landlord exploited a loophole in the law and challenged the legitimacy of the claim, which went to a Tribunal. We made the tribunal application on 6 November 2023 but due to backlogs the Tribunal delayed giving its directions until 4 September 2024. When received, they were complied with promptly and by the dates directed. There was no dithering. In good faith RTMF continued to represent you at the Tribunal despite the non-payment of our costs. The Tribunal granted your RTM but further delays occurred because the Landlord appealed to the Upper Tribunal. Despite our submissions on your behalf the case was adjourned until the hearing of a case in the Court of Appeal on related issues. These are all factors beyond the control of RTMF. The Court of Appeal decision was handed down on 30 July 2025 and subject to an appeal to the Supreme Court, the law now recognises equitable owners as qualifying tenants, whereas at the time your claim was made only registered title owners qualified. We understand your frustration, but RTMF cannot be held liable for delays in the legal system or unforeseen changes in statutory interpretation.

We used RTMF to arrange the take over…

We used RTMF to arrange the take over the management of our block of five flats. They certainly made the whole process very straight forward. Any queries were always answered in a very polite and reassuring way. RTMF were professional and we would recommend them to any one thinking about taking control and forming their own management company.

Easy process.

Good communication, easy process, could have been complicated but they made it easy. Struggling to get rid of old management company but that's not down to RTMF. Very happy 😊

RTMF not same anymore

We worked with Mauricea , she was great and she’s no longer working with RTMF

Edit - Respond to your questions:

Thank you for your response, but my complaint already explains the issue in full actually.
It’s not simply about staff changes — since Mauricea’s departure, we have been unable to get clear or timely responses to our emails. The quality of RTMF’s service has declined significantly.

As your clients, we expect professionalism and support, especially after paying around £5,000 for the RTM setup. It seems that only Mauricea was genuinely committed to working efficiently and transparently with us, and since her departure, communication and service have become very poor.

Antwort von RTMF

Thank you for your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear you feel the service has declined following Mauricea’s departure. Mauricea was a valued member of our team for several years, and we appreciate your recognition of her efforts. However, we respectfully disagree that her leaving reflects a decline in RTMF’s overall service.

RTMF has been helping leaseholders successfully acquire the Right to Manage for over 17 years, with hundreds of RTMs completed during and since Mauricea’s time with us. Our processes and standards are built around a committed and experienced team, not reliant on any single individual.

We also want to clarify that the fee paid — around £5,000 — is entirely in line with the complexity and scale of the RTM process for a building of your size. It reflects the significant legal, procedural, and administrative work involved in preparing and managing a compliant claim.

We note that no specific concerns have been raised about your RTM claim itself, and we would welcome the opportunity to address any outstanding issues directly. Please feel free to contact us with further details so we can assist you properly.

Our commitment to professionalism, responsiveness, and transparency remains unchanged, and we always strive to ensure every client receives the support they need throughout the RTM process.

Great experience

We used RTMF to take over the management of the block of flats. I found them to be really helpful - responded to queries, were on it with deadlines, and we got a positive result!

Non-disclosive over charging lawyers

As a community of individuals trying to oust a negligent management agent we thought this company could assist instead they overcharged us, delivered nothing and then tried to threaten us with legal action when questioning their charges.

Avoid at all costs!
