LEASE research into leasehold issues

The government-backed Leasehold Advisory Service (LEASE) is conducting research into leasehold housing. The research is focussing on two areas: the current issues mainly affecting leaseholders, and which organisations they turn to for help, advice or advocacy.

"We want to find out whether the issues that our data highlight are in fact the day-to-day issues for leaseholders, and also identify who represents or helps leaseholders to ensure that we are coordinating with them," says Anthony Essien, Chief Executive of LEASE.
