The #LeaseholdReform Bill may not be a revolution, but its 990-year standard lease extension contains the seed of the death of leasehold - and banning the 'fleecehold' scam of new leasehold houses is a big plus for future homebuyers & owners.

Angela Rayner 🌹 hi. Please introduce a cap on ground rent when you are in power. This was the consultation on ground rent options. We got nada. #leaseholdreform
March 1996 ITV News Cook Report showed how Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities at that time did not implement #lease holdreform and bottled it at last stage.
History repeats itself yet again, why promise #uturn #servicecharge #lease holders #freeholders #groundrent #lease #lease extension #marriagevalue .
SHOCKING! Westminster City Council leaseholders’ building insurance set to double from that paid in 2023. They have no say as WCC are tendering for a policy to cover all properties borough-wide & only #ProtectorForsikring are willing to cover so no competitive process. #leaseholdreform
Watching people who clearly have vested interest decide the fate of the #leaseholdreform bill is pretty gross
Just found this of my dad on the left. He was in a few #ealingcomedies too but #stammer forced him to stop #acting as a young man. #Fleecehold lead NLC - LEASEHOLD CAMPAIGNER - #reLEASE us Katie also had a stammer as a child but overcame it to fight bullies & push for #leaseholdreform #commonhold

I hven't had time 2 read the latest drafts of #leaseholdreform but I really need it 2 go through capping ground rent to £250 per year at a minimum.Or I'm trapped in an unsellable lovely flat which is an hour's drive away of where we all need to be. We worked hard, but stuck.
Fleecehold is a tribute to #leaseholdreform er Louie Burns who died in 2020 & whose birthday is today. A larger than life character from #folkestone who inspired Katie, Jo & Cath NLC - LEASEHOLD CAMPAIGNER - #reLEASE us

My flat is finally on sale - transition from #leaseholder to #freeholder 30% loaded… I love this beautiful home. Make no mistake, if proper, robust #leaseholdreform had been made (if not abolishment) there’s no way I’d let it go. Time to move on but I’ll still fight the fight!
Lots of #booing welcome at at my play #Fleecehold esp after Gov U-turn on #leaseholdreform True story #leaseholdscandal #preview July 7 & 8 #folkestone and August 11-13 @littleangeltheatre @thecamdenfringe

Really!? 😲 Don’t live in London & our service charges are around £2K every 6 bloody months!
So, either we're being seriously ripped off or London is under-paying!? 🤔

Would anyone be interested in a webinar about the service charge reforms? I'd like to try explain them in simple language: it's the only way that I can tell whether I have understood them. #leaseholdreform
This Govt is so paralysed by its landlord ministers and property donors, it's now caved in on no fault evictions and even raising environmental standards! What hope for #leaseholdreform with such a hopelessly compromised Govt? #electionnow archive.ph/SK94b
Good summary of service charge scams. One freeholder I know of has their own managing agent and even own insurance broker. Hidden commissions & fees all round! 🥂 All paid for by the flat leaseholders via service charges & their insurance 'premium'.

Lord Asset-Class from Fleecehold The Play has come to life and possessed several #Lords in #houseoflords 🙄 Just waiting for them to refer to #leaseholders as peasants #leaseholdreform
With 10 million leaseholders affected, Michael Gove's push for leasehold reform faces setback as Downing Street quietly axe major proposal. Liberal Democrats pledge to end the grip of leasehold, freeing homeowners from the outdated feudal system. #LeaseholdReform #LibDems2024
