@FreeLeasehlders Will this apply to leaseholders whose freeholder is a local council? We have a mix of leaseholders and council tenants

@CalvinBailey Thank you for helping us already holding @NewhamLondon to account for leaseholder bills of up to £56k per flat even though they have not maintained the building. Appreciate the support! #leasehold #mentalhealth #costofliving

@gamecounsel @TenureFreedom @FreeLeasehlders @lewis_goodall @LBC @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer @AngelaRayner @mtpennycook @NewhamLondon I don't think that will apply to any of the Leaseholders but really good to know. The section 20 process started in 2021, no work yet and final bills not until at least 2027 (apparently that's should be seen as advantage!). We were just offered 10% off final bill for delays...

@gamecounsel @TenureFreedom @FreeLeasehlders @lewis_goodall @LBC @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer @AngelaRayner @mtpennycook @NewhamLondon No. Standard purchase with our hard earned money. Weighed up the future works and thought 'okay £4.5k won't be too bad in the future'. Couldn't have anticipated a 900% increase! Especially when no work has taken place on the building for over 30 years... Not even a lick of paint!

@MattLismore @NLC_2019 Not stopped thinking about it.Facing bills of up to £56k per flat from @NewhamLondon .Decades of neglect admitted by them and promised to be reflected in our bills. Now backtracking. Affecting our mental health worrying about how to pay over 3 years#leaseholdcrisis #stress

@wdz8p2ym92 @LiamSpender @NewhamCouncil Have a little look at this!

@NLC_2019 @Royal_Greenwich @LKPleasehold @CharlieJSDavis Similar for us.£56k bill per flat by @NewhamLondon. Building not maintained for decades.Purchased 5 years ago with an estimate at £4.5k for future works!LBN accepted neglect- now backtracking.Section 20 since 2021 and no work started yet.Bills in 2027-cant sell. In financial ruin

@LucieGutfreund We bought 5 years ago with an estimate for future works at £4.6k... we now have an estimate for £43k!!! A 900% increase! @NewhamLondon obviously had no idea of their stock as the building looks the same as it did when we bought!

@LucieGutfreund @LiamSpender @NewhamCouncil We bought 5 years ago with an estimate for future works for about £4.5k... ours is now £43k! A 900% increase!!!! Their excuse... Scope of work has changed .. they obviously had no idea of their stock because 5 years ago the building looked the same as it does now.

@BBCLondonNews We’re leaseholders in a @NewhamLondon -owned block facing major works estimates of up to £56k per flat, despite being told 5 years ago we’d pay £4.5k. Newham hasn’t maintained the building in over 30 years, and now we’re stuck financially, unable to sell. #LeaseholderStruggles

@CommonsHCLG @AngelaRayner Please also add in legislation which holds local authority freeholders to account. No maintenance on our building for over 30 years by @NewhamLondon and now they are asking for up to £56k per leaseholder for major works. Only 3 years to pay!! It's such a worry and we can't sell!

@BBCLondonNews Feeling trapped! We’re leaseholders in @NewhamLondon owned block & after YEARS of waiting for maintenance, we're hit with estimates up to £56k per flat! 🤯 Told future costs would be £4.5k in 2020..now it's £43k!3 years to pay,we're stuck & can't sell #Leaseholders #HousingCrisis

@SUBWAY Why change to touchscreen ordering & cover the counter with stickers? My order took 5 mins, not 2, and I couldn't see what was happening. Ended up with unwanted salad & stress. Your USP used to be customizing at the counter. I ordered at the screen as well as telling them

@NewhamLondon @chrisyeats1991 @FreeLeasehlders The leasehold team are very aware of all of this including the head of housing David Padfield. We have already been in contact but he has not responded to my last email.

@JamesAsser @NewhamLondon has issued £56k estimates per flat for major works in a Newham-run block, despite 30 years of neglect. Leaseholders are facing financial ruin with a 3-year repayment deadline, risking bankruptcy and losing their homes.

@Keir_Starmer No accountability for council freeholders. Just received estimates from @NewhamLondon for up to £56k per flat for major works. Not a lick of paint in over 30 years,not maintained building. Asking us to pay over 3 years on top of service charges!Causing us so much financial worry

@NewhamLondon @MattLismore @lbbdcouncil This goes beyond attending a surgery. We are 3 years into a section 22 process. LBN saying they will be contributing to the cost due to their neglect but refusing to tell us how much. Leaving Leaseholders worrying about how they will magic up £56k over 3 years.

@Kwajotweneboa No accountability for council freeholders. We have just received estimates from @NewhamLondon for up to £56k per flat for major works. Not a lick of paint in over 30 years, LBN not maintained building. Asking us to pay over 3 years on top of service charges!
