Letting Agents: Regulation

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether his Department is taking steps to further regulate services provided to leaseholders by management agencies.

Answer

The Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill announced in the King’s Speech will make it easier for leaseholders to scrutinise costs and challenge the services provided by both freeholders and property managing agents. The Bill will also make it easier for leaseholders to take on management of their buildings themselves where they can directly appoint or replace agents.
