Helping Leaseholders Regain Control of Their Buildings and Long-Term Value
Helping Leaseholders Regain Control of Their Buildings and Long-Term Value
I’m Maura Walsh, an RTM specialist and leaseholder advocate working with resident directors and leaseholders who are dealing with mismanagement, inflated service charges, safety failures, and buildings that feel impossible to fix.
With over 25 years in senior leadership and more than 15 years operating in the UK property sector, I specialise in guiding leaseholders through the full Right to Manage (RTM) journey, stabilising post-RTM operations, challenging unreasonable charges, rebuilding compliance frameworks, and preparing robust evidence for dispute and tribunal processes.
My Journey from Social Care to Property Advocacy
My property journey began in 2008 when I became an accidental landlord and quickly uncovered the systemic challenges that many leaseholders face:
-
Poor and inconsistent building management
-
Spiralling, unjustified service charges
-
Lack of transparency from managing agents
-
Essential repairs delayed, inflated, or poorly controlled
Determined to take control rather than accept these failures, I developed deep expertise in the Right to Manage (RTM) process and the practical realities that follow: stabilising neglected buildings, rebuilding governance, correcting compliance failures, challenging unreasonable charges, and preparing robust evidence for disputes and tribunal proceedings.
Today, I bring this experience together to support leaseholders and resident directors who want clarity, control and long-term resilience in their buildings. My work focuses on RTM strategy, post-acquisition stabilisation, compliance recovery, dispute preparation, and building sustainable self-management systems that protect both safety and asset value.

How I Work
My approach is built on three pillars:
Transparency
I turn complex lease, legal and compliance issues into clear, practical decisions so you always know exactly what to do next.
Collaboration
I work directly with leaseholders, directors and trusted specialists to align strategy, evidence and delivery without wasted time or cost.
Action
Every recommendation is focused on real outcomes: safer buildings, controlled costs, restored compliance and stronger legal positions..
Since founding Your Home Now Ltd in 2019, Maura has:
-
Led multiple successful Right to Manage (RTM) claims from eligibility assessment through acquisition and post-handover stabilisation.
-
Supported leaseholders and RTM directors in tribunal preparation, evidence strategy and service-charge challenges.
-
Rebuilt failing building governance and compliance frameworks, correcting historic safety, financial and management failures.
-
Designed operational systems, templates and compliance structures now replicated across multiple RTM companies.
Who I Help
I work with:
Leaseholders who want to take control of their building through Right to Manage (RTM), challenge unfair service charges, or fix long-standing safety and management failures.
RTM and Resident Management Company (RMC) directors who need structured support with compliance, governance, contractor control and tribunal preparation.
Freeholders and professional landlords who require independent, expert guidance on leasehold law, block management strategy and risk reduction.
My clients are typically dealing with complex buildings, historic mismanagement, regulatory exposure or high financial risk and want clear, commercially grounded advice rather than generic consultancy.

actively support RTM directors and leaseholder groups by sharing proven strategies, templates, and operational frameworks developed through real-world cases.
My focus is practical: stronger governance, better compliance, tighter cost control, and faster decision-making inside resident-led buildings.
If you want structured, commercially grounded support rather than generic advice, you’re in the right place.
