Property management company formation · Northern Ireland
Set up a company for your building or development, with a structure suited to its ownership and management arrangements.
Is this structure right for you?
A property management company can provide the legal structure used to hold or manage communal interests in a building or estate.
How it works
Check your name, then provide the property details and intended ownership or membership arrangements.
We review the property and company structure, complete the required checks and submit the formation.
After incorporation, you receive your company documents and confirmation of registration.
What we’ll need
The company holds the owners’ rights and responsibilities. A managing agent may separately handle maintenance and day-to-day administration.
Ask our team about your property structure →Depending on the property arrangements, the company may have responsibility for communal areas, shared facilities or other obligations set out in the leases, transfers or title documents.
Northern Ireland: statutory Right to Manage companies and commonhold associations referred to in some UK guidance do not apply in Northern Ireland, so the company should reflect the actual leases, transfers, title and development documentation.
That depends on the development. It may be owned or controlled by property owners or residents under the agreed structure.
No. The company is the legal entity used for the property arrangements; a managing agent may separately carry out the day-to-day management.
The company’s membership and governance should reflect the property arrangements so that control can work properly as ownership changes.
No. Incorporating the company does not transfer property to it. Ownership depends on the relevant title and property documents, and any transfer must be completed separately.
The company structure should provide a mechanism for the outgoing owner’s membership or share to pass appropriately to the incoming owner where control is intended to follow property ownership.
For a property management company, the articles should reflect how the development is intended to operate, including the membership and control arrangements, rather than relying only on generic company provisions.
Not in Northern Ireland. The statutory Right to Manage company regime referred to in some English leasehold guidance does not apply in Northern Ireland.
