Use this calculator to see what East Valley Properties might charge to handle your Right to Manage claim, what that could mean per participating leaseholder, and whether our Funded Right to Manage option may be available for your block.
East Valley's indicative professional fee for a straightforward RTM claim is £1,500-£2,500, starting from £1,500. The exact quotation depends on the building, title structure and complexity of the claim. Figures are indicative and exclusive of VAT, in line with our published pricing. This tool does not decide whether your building qualifies for RTM, how much a claim will cost in total, or whether the freeholder will dispute it.
This calculator does not determine whether your building qualifies for Right to Manage. RTM eligibility depends on the statutory requirements and the particular building and title structure. Our Right to Manage service page explains how we check that properly.
The £1,500-£2,500 figure is East Valley's professional RTM service fee. It is not necessarily the entire cost of the process. Depending on the building and how the claim progresses, external costs can include:
Third-party fees change. Please check the current figure with the relevant body before you rely on it. East Valley Properties is a managing agent and does not provide reserved legal services.
For a straightforward claim, East Valley's indicative professional fee is £1,500-£2,500, starting from £1,500. Third-party costs such as company formation, title documents, any specialist legal advice and tribunal fees sit on top of that. There is no single statutory price for RTM: what a claim costs depends on the building, the title structure and how smoothly the process runs.
On 3 March 2025 the RTM costs regime changed. The old general position, under which an RTM company could be responsible for the landlord's reasonable costs incurred in consequence of a claim notice, was replaced. Section 87A of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002, inserted by the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024 and commenced by SI 2025/131, now provides that an RTM company and its members are not liable for costs incurred by any other person in consequence of a claim notice, except as set out in that section. Limited exceptions remain - including the circumstances in section 87B and costs a court or tribunal orders under another enactment - so it is wrong to say that all landlord-related costs disappeared.

Yes. Professional assistance is not mandatory, and some well organised groups run a straightforward claim themselves. The statutory process is prescriptive, though: mistakes in identifying qualifying tenants, in the participation notices or in the claim notice can cost time and, in some cases, defeat a claim. Our Right to Manage guide sets out what the process involves so you can judge whether you want help with it.
For eligible developments, East Valley may fund its own RTM professional service fee where East Valley is appointed as managing agent following successful acquisition of the Right to Manage. Normal East Valley management fees apply and are not increased because of the funded RTM offer. The intended management appointment is 24 months. External costs may still apply. Eligibility and terms apply.
See Funded Right to Manage or read the terms and eligibility.
On the acquisition date the management functions transfer to the RTM company, which then either self-manages or appoints a managing agent. The outgoing agent must hand over records, funds and compliance information. See RTM company management and our managing agent handover checklist.
