What are my responsibilities?

Principally, these will be the requirements to keep the inside of the flat in good order, to pay (on time) a share of the costs of maintaining and running the building via the service charge, to behave in a neighbourly manner and not to do certain things without High Peak Borough Council's consent, for example, make alterations or sub-let. The landlord has an obligation to ensure that you comply with such responsibilities for the good of all the other leaseholders and tenants in the block. Full detail relating to these rights and responsibilities will be set out in the lease.
