What is Right to Manage
Carmel House is managed by a company made up of the leaseholders, Carmel House (Hove) RTM Company Limited. Every leaseholder is given the option to become a member of the company which entitles them to have a vote on the running of the building. The members appoint directors (other leaseholders or their relatives) to act on their behalf.
