Commonhold Now

🛑Commonhold flats Giving a “stake" in ownership CommonholdNow campaign said it had concerns about "misinformation" adding it hopes the government will "raise awareness about how commonhold works in practice" providing “reliable and impartial information" yahoo.com/news/leasehold…

What are the benefits of commonhold? "Commonhold should not be looked at through the lens of leasehold. Commonhold involves a culture change. It moves away from an "us and them" mindset, towards "us and ourselves". Prof Nick Hopkins, Law Commissioner

Lord @MichaelGove, former Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, told us that freeholders "have benefitted from a system whereby they get money for nothing", and he'd like to see an acceleration by Government to end ground rent.

Thanks to @MCHLG and leasehold campaigners @NLC_2019 @LiamSpender for their work and evidence while looking forward to seeing commonhold become the default form of flat ownership as it is elsewhere. @CommonsHCLG @FloEshalomi @SteveReedMP @Keir_Starmer @mtpennycook parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/2f…

@mtpennycook Thankyou @mtpennycook #GetCommonholdDone @AngelaRayner

We need fundamental and comprehensive leasehold reform including the reinvigoration of commonhold. Looks like it will have to be a Labour government that delivers it.

🔝Leasehold concerns rise to 66% in landmark survey by @HomeOwnersAll Despite Government pledges to reform the system, leaseholders remain trapped in homes they cannot sell. @T_Haynesy @mtpennycook @mhclg #Leaseholdscandal #Trapped telegraph.co.uk/money/property…

In the meantime @HomeOwnersAll landmark survey today reports leasehold is a growing concern ..... Sticking plasters will not fix the systematic issues with leasehold. The system is rotten to the core. #GetCommonholdDone @CommonholdNow x.com/NLC_2019/statu…

An Important Change for Commonhold! What about existing leaseholds converting to Commonhold? “It is proposed that the threshold for conversion should be reduced to 50% of leasehold owners being in favour.” @mtpennycook lexology.com/library/detail…

COMMONHOLD Associations will be mandated to operate reserve accounts to improve financial robustness and prevent unit owners having to pay large and unexpected maintenance bills. They will also be able to obtain loans to help with the cost of major works. lexology.com/library/detail…

Evidence up to 30 fake company directorships may have been created in an attempt to block leaseholders from taking control of their building's management company. #LeaseholdScandal @KimJohnsonMP @WaddingtonPost bbc.com/news/articles/…

Costs are better value for Commonhold Associations who put all services out to competitive tender and can select the best value provider for their buildings specific requirements. Commonholders have the incentive to find cost effective solutions instead of freeholders passing on any old costs from their contractors.

@CommonholdNow @moving_charlie @ukhpinfo @mtpennycook @NLC_2019 How would Commonhold make any difference? Will the cost of a cleaner or lift maintenance contract suddenly be cheaper under Commonhold?

Look at this freehold v leasehold price and notice how it’s performed in almost the complete opposite way that overall house prices have. Leasehold has been a bad financial investment for a long time. The veil is being lifted and people are wising up.

From years of Commonhold experience the opposite occurs- Reforms will strengthen governance, trust and value, Flat values typically increase steadily, Service charges are value for money and Overdue levies collected by an established process.
