Serious Question: Why are leaseholders being asked to underwrite the cost of structural repairs to ANY building when they do not own a single brick in it? https://t.co/Xa0mTqtSZ2

[Shared Ownership Resources @ResourcesShared]

Can't afford to staircase? Can't sell? High service charges? Didn't understand what you were getting into?
If you're a shared owner and you'd be happy to be filmed talking to a journalist about your experiences, please contact us ASAP at [email protected]

@Ryanair_ES Me podria decir cuales son los pasos necesarios para llevar una guitarra en el avion conmigo por favor? No lo quierro facturar… se puede?

[Catherine Williams OBE @cathnlc.bsky.social @cattwil]

The leaseholders paid £4,500 for their own survey, which found the council’s estimates to be overblown and that the costs included unnecessary items, such as replacing roof tiles that weren’t even used on the building.

Why are leaseholders, who do not legally own a single brick in this building, being forced to pay for fire-proofing? Freeholder is Freshwater.

Harsh truth here: There are no legal barriers on the sums Freeholders can demand from Leaseholders as service charges. @HarryScoffin’s mother is forced to pay annually a sum equal to Britain’s average yearly take-home pay. No wonder @FreeLeasehlders is catching on!

While radio and TV broadcasters often avoid tackling complex subjects that cannot easily be explained in a visual clip, @LBC stands out. It has taken on the thorny topic of Leasehold law which permits the exploitation of millions of flat occupiers. Keep up the good work!

[Deirdre Costigan MP @deirdrecostigan]

Thank you to the Ealing Southall residents who came to Parliament today to share the shocking treatment they've faced from the managing agent, FirstPort.

This parliamentary inquiry has shone a light on FirstPort's mistreatment of leaseholders, and it's time for that to change.

[Free Leaseholders @FreeLeasehlders]

💸 It is not just offshore freeloaders 💸

If England’s local councils are shafting flat owners with opaque, padded and even fictitious service charges, we know it is the leasehold system which needs binning.

This isn’t about a few rogues or bad apples.

Well done, @MattLismore!

Another event about leaseholders' and tenant's costs, - - without residents.

Shared ownership: 'It's a con and we felt trapped'

Touted as a stepping stone to getting on the property ladder.

But behind the hope lies a growing wave of discontent, as complaints to the housing watchdog - over repairs, costs and selling - have soared. https://t.co/pQBZU8HubF

South London shared owners in battle with @NHGhousing over £500pcm service charges for a 24-hour concierge and maintenance of the communal garden used by the luxury blocks next door, which they can't access.

This evening, I convened a meeting between leaseholders and freeholders from the Stonegrove Estate in Edgware and senior leadership from FirstPort, who manage the estate. I brought FirstPort managers to Stonegrove so that residents could get answers and action on the issues they face. I’ll hold FirstPort to account to ensure they deliver on the promises they made tonight.

[Joe Powell MP @josephpowell]

Leaseholders in Kensington and Bayswater shouldn’t have to deal with issues like unaffordable hikes to service charges and poor managing agent quality on their own.

I’m taking action to support leaseholders — and that’s why I’ve set up a Leaseholder Action Group.

Join my Leaseholder Action Group today by emailing [email protected] to stay informed and have a strong voice in shaping change.

[Lucie Gutfreund @LucieGutfreund]

Shocking the HA would spend money fighting the shared ownership tenants in a Tribunal, instead of spending this money to challenge the freeholder who passes costs to shared owners for facilities that the shared owners have no access to.

@WHSmith is £3.29 really the price of a small bottle of Coca Cola at the Ipswich station shop? I didn’t realise this was what had been charged to my card until I got on the train and looked at my online banking account.

Legal costs can be a major obstacle to shared owners challenging unfair service charges. Please consider making a donation to leaseholders taking legal action in a case that could set a significant precedent for social housing residents.
