Leasehold reform legislation coming ‘within this year’ says Housing Secretary

Lawyers & leasehold specialists weigh-in on a big update on leasehold reform - including that the 'two-year rule' for leasehold extensions ends in January.

The 'two-year rule' will end in January, but the announcement of more consultations mean major changes to the leasehold system are still some way off.

Rushed-through Act is 'far from perfect, but it is the start of reform to outdated legislation that was not fit for purpose,' says Propertymark.
