Reeve Start · Process & Notices

Run the claim, correctly

The statutory steps with their deadlines. Reeve generates each prescribed notice for your approval — it never files anything itself.

The #1 reason RTM claims fail

A defective Notice of Invitation to Participate (missing the prescribed notes). Reeve includes them automatically — but have your solicitor review before you serve.

  1. Check eligibility

    Done9 Jun 2026

    Qualify for RTM (high confidence).

  2. Build participation to 50%

    In progress9 Jun 2026

    9/16 committed (56%).

  3. Form the RTM company

    Next

    Private company limited by guarantee, prescribed Articles, 'RTM' in name.

  4. Notice of Invitation to Participate (s78)

    Must include prescribed notes; claim notice can't follow for 14 days. #1 fatal-defect risk — Reeve generates it correctly.

  5. Serve Claim Notice (s79)

  6. Landlord counter-notice window (1 month)

    If disputed, apply to First-tier Tribunal within 2 months.

  7. Acquisition date

    ≥3 months after counter-notice date if unopposed.

Reeve prepares notices and tracks deadlines. It does not conduct litigation or represent you at tribunal — that's a solicitor's job.
