Residents have struggled to get their voices heard by their Landlord, A2Dominion - about the quality of maintenance and the costs keep rising!
Because of the Grenfell fire tragedy, there is a requirement for increased fire safety and Manor court has fallen into the cracks of legislation. Here, the buildings are not tall enough to qualify for government funding to fulfill new safety requirements, yet mortgage companies still ask for EWS1 certificate; meaning it is very difficult for leaseholders to sell, and remortgage their apartments in Manor Court at a fair value.
Whilst A2Dominion have improved fire safety, they are unwilling to commit to the cost of fulfilling new safety requirements, preferring to place them at the foot of the leaseholder. There is some work to be done, yet the options presented thus far by A2Dominion are in the interests of the landlord and not of the leaseholder.
We the leaseholders, as the major shareholder of Manor Court, want:
- an impartial view of facts, the real value of the property, and the cost of the work involved.
- to collectively decide on the fate of Manor Court based on the facts above
- whatever deal is negotiated, it has at heart the interests of the current residents first.
Volunteers at Manor Court are already spending a significant portion of their free time coordinating and gathering information to present a case that will be heard by A2Dominion, MPs, and local councillors.
Donors will help the volunteers and leaseholders achieve the top three objectives by:
- Getting impartial legal advice
- Supporting the administrative costs of the campaign
- Getting expert witnesses to support any case at the Leaseholder's Tribunal
- Support the logistics and meeting costs of working with MPs and councillors.
Donors who work with the volunteers will know that whatever they contribute, they will be offsetting a poor deal presented by A2Dominion and holding the landlord to account for the proper maintenance of Manor Court, for all residents to enjoy peacefully this spacious and green estate.
