ChangeYour
Property Factor.
If your current factor isn’t delivering, you’re not locked in. We guide owners through the full process — from initial discussion to formal appointment — ensuring everything is handled correctly and in line with Scottish legislation.
Unhappy With Your
Current Factor?
Many owners come to us after ongoing issues with communication, lack of maintenance, unclear charges, or slow response times.
Traditional tenement buildings require consistent oversight and proper management — when that isn’t in place, small issues quickly become costly problems.
Changing factor is more straightforward than most owners expect, provided it is handled correctly.
How Changing Factor Works.
In most cases, changing factor is governed by the title deeds or, where applicable, the Tenement Management Scheme.
-
A majority of owners within the building must agree
-
Formal notice is issued to the current factor
-
A clear handover process is arranged
-
Financial and maintenance records are transferred
We guide you through each stage to ensure the process is compliant and straightforward.
