Any excess funds are saved up to pay for works as and when required, such as the painting of communal areas.
Upon speaking with some of the residents, they have informed us that they have agreed as a communal group not to rent the flats out, nor allow pets, this however does not appear stipulated in the lease and so is not thought to be a legal restriction. we believe is more of an agreement based on trust.
