Legal assistance for VvE and compensation


Questioner

I have owned an apartment (right) since 2011 and am a member of the VvE. The technical management has been placed with a professional manager by the VvE. In 2013, leakage occurred for the first time through the roof of my bay window. After several repairs, carried out on behalf of the VvE, the underlying cause of the leakage now seems to have been resolved. However, there is still consequential damage to my interior walls and frames. I have already submitted several requests to the manager since mid-2014, but to date this has not resulted in repair or compensation for the damage. The manager communicates very poorly and gives various reasons for delay, for example that the building insurance must assess it first. There is no prospect of a resolution to this situation. What are my options?

Lawyer

The VvE is liable for the consequential damage. Regardless of whether the VvE's building insurance provides cover for this damage, the VvE must compensate you for this damage. Now that the manager is not responding to your requests, it is advisable to send a final written summons to the manager, in which the VvE is summoned to acknowledge its liability for the damage you have suffered and to compensate it. I am happy to draw up such a letter for you. A letter from a lawyer can sometimes make a difference in a case like the one at hand. If you have any questions or would like legal assistance, please contact me without obligation and free of charge.
