Stuck in the same situation - it's now been a year since Crabtree advised that the Millward Drive development had failed the cladding survey, with the lowest rating, basically meaning all of the apartments on the development are pretty much unsellable, unless you can find a cash buyer. There has not been one. single. further communication on the matter since. That's a full year of worry and stress for leaseholders, during which Crabtree have not even had the courtesy or decency to follow up on t ...

Ridiculously high service charge given that they barely provide a "service" at all. Neighbouring Properties pay a similar amount but actually get what they pay for (plus much better amenities and other perks).
