If you are new to managing a flat in Scotland, then this is the webinar for you.

You may be a first time purchaser of a flat in Scotland, you may just have taken over a flat from another letting agent and never worked with your factor before or you may have found yourself without a factor because of other owners’ actions - or inactions.

And then the roof starts leaking…..and your tenants are complaining…

It’s going to be a bit of a gallop but we are going to take you through the whole process from how to decide on which builder to use, contacting your co-owners, finding the rules for your tenement and getting other owners to pay their share.

At the end of this webinar, you will have a good mental map of the whole tenement management and repair process and some ideas of what you can do to set your tenement up with better management in the future. You’ll also have links to pages on Under One Roof that will fill in more detail.

Further webinars in this series will also take you through some of the steps in more detail and we’ll be bringing in guest speakers who tackle these issues as part of their day to day work.

    Author and producer of Under One Roof Scotland
    Annie Flint became interested in tenement management when she had some interesting experiences during communal block repairs. She subsequently wrote "The Tenement Handbook" with her co-author John Gilbert. After many further adventures in all things tenemental, and when the Tenement Handbook became sadly dated, Annie and John set up the website www.underoneroof.scot that took the Handbook online. Under One Roof has been widely praised, even being mentioned favourably in the Scottish Parliament.
