About us
We are the people who built Leasehold Clarity for ourselves.
Murphy Thompson Moore LLP has spent over thirty years providing accounting, tax and company secretarial services to businesses across the UK. We are also leasehold directors. That combination is why Leasehold Clarity exists.
Murphy Thompson Moore LLP
Thirty years of professional expertise, applied to your building.
Murphy Thompson Moore LLP was established to provide serious, professional accounting, tax advisory and company secretarial services to businesses that needed more than a spreadsheet and an annual return. Over three decades we have helped businesses keep their records right, their obligations met and their directors properly informed.
Leasehold clients were always a significant part of that practice: RTM companies, RMCs and management companies. We advised them on company secretarial compliance, prepared their accounts and handled their Companies House obligations.
What we found, over years of advising them, was that most were organising their building in an unnecessarily difficult way. Not through incompetence, but because there was no infrastructure available to do it properly.
Who is who
Leasehold Clarity Limited (company number 16963931) provides the software.
Murphy Thompson Moore LLP (LLP No. OC314041) provides management and professional services.
Both are part of the MTM LLP group, based at Cresta House, 42 Water Lane, Wilmslow SK9 5AL.
What we believe
Three principles behind everything we build.
Make opacity impossible
Leaseholders deserve to understand how their money is managed and what decisions are made for them.
Professional tools for everyone
A director running a six-flat block deserves the same tools as a portfolio manager.
Held to a professional standard
Everything we build is underpinned by the accuracy and care of our accountancy and company secretarial work.
The team
Built by directors who happen to be professional advisers.
Leasehold Clarity was built by two partners who are, personally, RTM directors.
Doug Murphy
Senior Partner, Murphy Thompson Moore LLP · Co-founder, Leasehold Clarity
Doug leads the accounting, tax and business advisory practice at Murphy Thompson Moore, and has helped hundreds of owner-managed businesses and leasehold companies meet their financial and statutory obligations.
He became an RTM director after frustrations with poor management at his own building, and recognised that the problem was structural, not personal. No director had the tools to do the job properly. That recognition became Leasehold Clarity.
Stephen Thompson
Senior Partner, Murphy Thompson Moore LLP · Co-founder, Leasehold Clarity
Stephen leads the company secretarial and compliance practice at Murphy Thompson Moore. He has spent his career making sure companies, including many leasehold management companies, meet their statutory obligations correctly and on time.
His experience of company secretarial work for leasehold entities is the backbone of the compliance features in Leasehold Clarity: the compliance calendar, the filing reminders and the statutory document management.
Why this matters now
Directors need better tools, not just better legislation.
The leasehold sector is going through its most significant period of reform in decades.
Reform is coming. Be ready.
Leasehold law is changing, with rights being extended and service charge transparency expectations rising. Directors with proper infrastructure are well placed to adapt.
Even with an agent, you need your own records.
If your compliance evidence, safety records and service charge accounts live only in your agent’s systems, you have no independent position. Independent infrastructure is not about distrust. It is about governance.
Better-run buildings are better investments.
A building with clear records, a compliant company and well-managed finances is worth more to every leaseholder who owns a flat there.
