Leasehold Reform
Labour is right to reconsider its approach to leasehold reform
The Residential Freehold Association (RFA) is a trade body representing the UK’s largest freeholders.
We work to ensure high standards are maintained while campaigning on key issues including leasehold reform, building safety, insurance and helping the Government reach its net zero targets.
We believe only a healthy and regulated leasehold system can deliver the highest standards of management, ensuring that residents are treated fairly and properly, and developers and agents are held to account.
The RFA has taken steps to ensure that the policies adhered to by professional freeholders support a high standard of living for residents in apartment buildings.
The RFA now intends to ensure that these policies are adopted by all freeholders and other entities which have responsibilities in respect of apartment blocks.
The RFA will work with Government and other industry bodies to support proposals to achieve these aims. More details can be found in the RFA’s Charter for Change.
The RFA is made up of a range of professional freeholders who are responsible for a significant portion of the current leasehold market. All members adhere to the following principles:
More details of these principles can be found in the RFA’s Code of Practice which outlines the high standards it expects of its Members and Affiliates. Our members include Wallace Partnership Group; Long Harbour; HomeGround; E and J Estates; Consensus Business Group; Pier Management Ltd, Landmark Investments; and the Fernando Group.
