Dear ........
I implore you to use your influence to call for a Select Committee Inquiry into the leasehold scandal. As more and more people find themselves caught in this trap we need the developers, conveyancing solicitors, valuers and others responsible for creating this mess to be brought to account. We now have approaching 11k members of the National Leasehold Campaign and I contributed to an article on the Leasehold scandal that appeared on Sky News recently.
Please note that under the much publicised Taylor Wimpey Ground Rent Assistance Scheme, leaseholders are required to sign a settlement agreement as well as the Deed of Variation to vary their lease terms from doubling to RPI. Signing this prevents them from claiming further from Taylor Wimpey and giving evidence to a Select Committee or any future class action.
Please contact Clive Betts, the Chair of the Select Committee for Housing, Communities and Local Government and make this happen.
I would be happy to give evidence to such an Inquiry and look forward to seeing you at the next APPG on Leasehold and Commonhold Reform later this month.
Kind regards,
