Told to remove sky dish off new home, or court action

[_Rich_]

My brother just messaged me, he has bought a brand new house in a huge housing development. He had sky installed a couple of months ago, in which he was told the dish has to be mounted on the side of the house (by the building company) in which he has done.

Any way fast forward to today the management company that maintains the roads etc have told him it needs be taken down because it can not be seen from the road or he'll be taken to court. Also apparently they can stop him selling his house in the future.

Further info, its a freehold but they pay to maintain the roads (like i believe all new builds)


Can this be done it seems a bit petty over a satellite dish?


sorry if the above is all over the place, i'm still being messaged by him whilst i type.

Wow that is bonkers, i guess its one of those thing you don't think of being a first time buyer.

Why don't you tell your brother to post on here himself?

Then your post wouldn't be 'all over the place'.

And we wouldn't get everything secondhand.

Well i think the the vast majority who posted above understood what i was saying. I also have to say their advice has been helpful and also has created an interesting conversation on the topic i posted.

If you're struggling with my op i happily re write it in a more basic format.
