2. Purpose of the Services
2.1 The purpose of using the Services is to provide Proprietors with a convenient framework within which to carry out and pay for Repairs and/or Improvements in accordance the Title Deeds or if relevant terms of the Act;
2.2 Please click here: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/asp/2004/11/contents to read the Act.
2.3 You must first check the Title Deeds to establish whether the Title Deeds contain the necessary detail to create your Scheme for a Repair or carry out an Improvement, or whether you need to rely on the terms of the Act as appropriate. It is your responsibility to adhere to the requirements of the relevant Title Deeds or where relevant the Act at all times. Failure to do so may make your Scheme unenforceable and ineffective as regards a Repair and difficult to recover all shares of the cost of an Improvement. Without prejudice to the terms of Clause 24, Novoville shall have no liability whatsoever if your Scheme fails due to your non adherence to the terms of either the Title Deeds or the Act as appropriate.
2.4 The Application can be used for Improvements. The same provisions of these Terms and Conditions apply to Improvements as Repairs; however it should be noted that Improvements cannot constitute a Scheme in terms of the Act and recovery of shares of the cost of Improvements may be more difficult to recover from non-paying/defaulting Proprietors than for a Repair. Please see guidance here: http://www.underoneroof.scot/articles/1056/Whose_agreement_do_we_need_/Maintenance_or_Improvement
2.5 The Services require you to provide information. In order for your Scheme to be successful, you must ensure that all information and User Content provided is accurate, and truthful. Misleading and inaccurate information and answers will increase the chance of your Scheme failing. Please be honest and thorough and do not withhold relevant information.
2.6 For your Scheme to be successful, or to carry out an Improvement successfully you will need a sufficient amount of Proprietors or their authorised representatives to vote in favour of Repair or Improvement (as the case may be) as may be determined by the Title Deeds or the Act (see 2.3 and 2.4), once you have created your User Site and your Account in the Application – see the article titled “How does voting work in this app?” in the Help section.
