Jose G asked 9 days agoThank you for your question. We've set our updates to once a month because, outside of significant developments, we would primarily be reiterating that work is ongoing. If any significant changes occur between our scheduled updates, we will always provide an interim notification immediately.

Who is paying for the extra 6 weeks remediation work? Will this have any impact on service charge in future?
Rob asked about 1 month agoThank you for for your question. The remediation work is covered within the contract by Southern Housing with Elements as a compliance issue to meet fire safety regulations. This will have not impact service charges and any service charge renewal will be in line with the service charge policy i.e. anyone who has exchanged will pay the current estimated charge until April 2026 when the renewal is due based on actual costs.
