LPA receivers tread a tightrope
Article Abstract:
The UK Law of Property Act empowers receivers to collects rents, recover income and make disposals. The issue of goodwill and whether receivers can continue to trade is complex and depends on interpretation of the legislation. A receiver could become personally liable if he does not act within the terms of the Act. Receivers have to study charges relating to their appointment, and lenders may seek to reassess terms of charge documents.
