Saturday 5 June: Cladding leaseholders to demonstrate outside sales suites of house builders

June 3, 2021 //  by Sebastian O'Kelly

Chinese leaseholders are also kicking off, urging Chinese purchasers tempted to invest in English housing stock to think again

Beware buying a flat in England

Be extremely cautious buying new build flats in the UK. The re-sale market is stalled. This is because of the regulatory fallout following the Grenfell fire of June 2017, in which 72 people died. Re-sales of these flats have collapsed, banks will not lend on them and owners are facing huge bills to make the buildings safe. This market is likely to be impacted for some years.

Buyers need to research carefully before proceeding: www.leaseholdknowledge.com would be a good place to start.

Alert to Hong Kong investors: Fire safety needs spell stiff fees in London properties | Apple Daily

Homeowners and the developer of a London housing complex are locking horns over property management costs linked to fire safety repairs, and the dispute has spilled over to another project whose codevelopers are tycoons in Hong Kong, the Kwok family.

On Saturday 5 2021 a series of impromptu demonstrations is taking place outside the sales offices of plc housebuilders whose failings have added to the fire safety defects bill facing leaseholders.

It is arguable who is most to blame over the cladding disaster – officials or housebuilders – and neither wants to press matters with anything like a court ruling which would establish blame. But the EWS1 surveys are also revealing a host of other build safety defects, including the lack of fire compartmentation in many cases, which would have been against regulations at the time of construction.

While government is gently telling off housebuilders with a £2 billion industry-wide levy payable over 10 years, it is also happy to dump the remediation costs on leaseholders: the innocent consumers in this scandal.

They will have to pay to put right the failings of others, with no access to the £5.1 billion Building Safety Fund for sites less than 18 metres high.

The result? A series of demonstrations at the offices of builders like Countryside Properties plc (which was also involved in the 10-year doubling ground rent scandal); Bellway, Ballymore, Redrow, Taylor Wimpey, Lend Lease, Weston Homes among others.
