    Research the management company, ask your solicitor to raise some enquiries about their expenses...speak to the neighbours, speak to the management company yourself

    Thank you, I will definitely be doing all of this.

    The house looks as if it might be in a conservation area and a beech tree like that would probably have a preservation order on it.

    If the tree were to threaten the building, management would have to apply to have it top pruned and possibly root pruned as well. In an extreme situation, permission is likely to be granted, but unlikely to be cheap, as these works need specialist management and monitoring over time.

    No one here can tell you how likely problems with the tree might be or over what time scale. A tree surgeon could give an advisory report.
