First time buyer. Developer lied about fire breaks, now paying for the privilege. £7.3m to fix a block that cost £7.5m to build. #EndOurFireSafetyScandal
When we shot this, Joe was just starting his legal battle.
4 years later, the tribunal found the freeholder overcharged £645,000 on insurance, but a loophole means he and his neighbours can’t get their money.
Sector roundtables won’t discuss the scam.

Having read this the unfairness of this is just insane.
Ameen Raza is a prime example of someone who should be rotting in prison for a very long time.
But he's faced almost no consequences whatsoever.
Looks like @LondonAssembly are getting the message that London flat occupiers are sick and tired of being charged hefty fees for services that may not have even been delivered and paid for by freeholders. Let’s see how Commonhold can work in London!
Labour ministers have charged the taxpayer over £74,000 in #leasehold costs for their second homes while “dragging their feet” on reforms, The Telegraph can reveal.
📢 The Public Accounts Committee has opened an inquiry into the remediation of dangerous cladding.
It's critical that leaseholders send written evidence to the inquiry. Do not rely on others.
We've prepared a short guide 👇

Check this out... 3 parking spaces, £475,000, annual service charge £3600 inc ground rent. Me 1 bed flat, Bolton £85,000 on a v.good day. Higher service charges and a rodent problem! Those that can't afford - pay dearly it would appear once they have you.

The Grenfell Inquiry report said that the architects, Studio E, had a "very significant degree of responsibility".
Today, @GoodLawProject, supported by the families of three victims and @fbunational, has filed a complaint with regulator @ArchRegUK

@michaelgove has still done more for leaseholders and cladding victims than this @UKLabour government.
I’m already a jaded Labour voter, u have 1 mission to deliver within 6 months.
Do it now!
Perhaps in a couple of decades we will have an @ITV drama on the building safety scandal & everyone will wring their hands & say how terrible that nobody listened at the time. That will be no good to those dealing with it now. Lives put on hold or in the worst case, lives lost.
This is the reality for thousands of us. This company are quite literally ruining thousands of lives and no one seems to be doing anything about it @metpoliceuk@mtpennycook@AngelaRayner

"A service charge can go up or down without any limit"
No. It only goes up without any limit. Mine has doubled in the last 3 years.

🗨️"No work has been done or commissioned. We can’t get the EWS1 form (...). Without either the form or the cladding being sorted out, everything is at a standstill."
Paul is in limbo & stuck with a 8.74% mortgage rate 💸
