Andrea Coscelli, Managing Director of CMA, said: «This is a big step forward for Taylor Wimpey`s tenants, who will no longer be subject to the doubling of ground rent. These are totally unwarranted obligations that leave people stuck in their homes and struggle to sell or get a mortgage. Other developers and real estate investors should now do the right thing for landlords and remove these problematic clauses from their contracts. If they refuse, we are prepared to intervene and take further action – if necessary through the courts. To avoid prosecution, the CMA said Taylor Wimpey and Countryside had to sign formal commitments — known as «covenants» — in which they committed to removing land lease terms from their leases. «If these developers do not address our concerns, we will take further action, including in court if necessary.» Regardless, some people keep whipping it all to death on local FB pages to protest the whole development, and it seems like there are plenty of dedicated Facebook pages to reveal how complete the builders are AND Taylor Wimpey herself is trying to shut them all down. Normal people who report problems try to be silenced. Problem against Taylor Wimpey, it was their subcontractor and they have to support the work of the contractors.

The CMA took enforcement action in September 2020 against four real estate developers – Countryside, Taylor Wimpey, Barratt Developments and Persimmon Homes – who it said violated the Consumer Protection Act with respect to leaseholds.

In a statement to the city highlighting the CMA`s action, Taylor Wimpey said, «We have now received a letter from the CMA outlining its concerns and confirming its intention to move to the next stage of formal consultation. License our cutting-edge legal content to strengthen your thought leadership and brand. The CMA said the demand is for leasehold homes, where ground rents double every 10 or 15 years. He called on the companies, both of which have pledged to take action on the issue, to agree not to use such conditions when selling homes in the future. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which launched enforcement action against the pair alongside Barratt and Persimmon in September last year, said it would sue the companies if they did not act. Of the four automakers the CMA took enforcement action against in September 2020, only investigations against Barratt Developments are still ongoing. Coscelli said the CMA was ready to take further action against the companies. «Countryside and Taylor Wimpey need to completely remove all of these terms from existing contracts to ensure they are on the right side of the law.

If these developers do not address our concerns, we will take further action, including in court if necessary,» he said. «Other developers and real estate investors should now do the right thing for landlords and remove these problematic clauses from their contracts. If they refuse, we are ready to intervene and take further action – through the courts if necessary,» he said. «The CMA concluded that it was not enough to support a clear legal case for the CMA to obtain a class action lawsuit for Barratt tenants under its consumer rights powers,» the regulator said in a statement.

In September 2020, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) initiated enforcement actions against Countryside Properties and Taylor Wimpey for using potentially unfair contract terms, and against Barratt Developments and Persimmon Homes for the possible missale of rented homes. The investigation into Barratt Developments and Persimmon Homes is ongoing. How about writing to them and asking them to complete the work to your satisfaction within 14 days, or you will direct the work yourself and recover the cost through Small Claims Court? This or send a letter, registered mail to TW in which any problems, times, etc. and let them know if it`s not sorted by date XX, you`ll do it privately and charge for it. If you put «note before action» at the beginning of the letter, it seems to get people moving. Major real estate developer Taylor Wimpey has pledged to cancel rental terms that double the base rent every 10 years, the Competition and Markets Authority has announced. The watchdog has warned that it will take legal action against other developers who refuse to remove similar clauses. Both are seeking damages of more than £8.5 million because the company failed to properly advise them.
