It is certainly true that some ground landlords do exploit leaseholders. But much of what has been listed above as issues (and they are) are and should be addressed by your solicitor in correspondence with the sellers and their solicitor - not by and with the agent, whose client is in fact the seller. I would also advise trying to contact other leaseholders in this property to find out their impressions, There may be a leasehold tenants' association (I used to be Hon Sec of one such in the 1970s) Worth finding out. Amended to add - well run private leaseholds may have a 'sinking fund' - so that leasehold tenants pay into that such that a sum builds to exist to meet large ticket items (roof repairs etc.) - although that does increase the annual costs it also offers a cushion against surprises. If such exists (but it probably won't where the council is the head landlord, then the head landlord should be paying-in (or accounting as if they had paid in) a similar sum for non leasehold tenants). Where a council is directly charging leasehold tenants but not others then they have to quite strictly account for monies both forecast and actually spent. They cannot just place the costs of works on the leaseholders but be clear how the costs have been pro-rated across all the properties. But something like roof repairs can be charged to all tenants and not just those occupying the top floor! -
It is also, I believe, against all good practice, and may even be an offence to cut or prune trees during nesting season, save where there is evident danger to life and limb. Which danger to Profit isn't. Shame on the organisers and shame on the greedy council for allowing it.
