Leasehold: Valuation
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government for what proportion of leasehold properties development value makes the exercise of collective enfranchisement prohibitively expensive; and what measures they will take to ensure that enfranchisement is financially feasible for affected leaseholders.
- Answer
-
My Department does not hold the requested data.
We are committed to implementing the provisions of the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024, which will make enfranchisement cheaper and easier. I refer the Noble Baroness to the response given in the House of Commons on 14 January 2026 UIN 103549 (attached) about these provisions.
