Hello, we have roof repairs to undertake and have notified leaseholders through the Section 20 process this process is completed. There were no responses during the consultation process. After this, we have received payment from the leaseholders except one, who subsequently on the request for payment has then listed objections and is refusing to pay. What are our options?

In days gone by it was possible to ask the mortgage lender to add this to the leaseholders’ loan. Is that still an option?

Thanks,

Robert
