Holding Onward Homes to Account

    1.  A number of volunteers are gathering and collating historical factual information about services not meeting expectations, planned and unplanned costs. We are aiming to create a vast body of evidence which shows we are being unfairly treated and trending towards a state of crisis without a feasible escape.

    2.  WhatsApp Group is regularly updated with examples and supporting information which may be used to challenge previous unacceptable deviations from Managing Agent obligations which form the schedules (terms and conditions) of the 1988 Leasehold agreement.

    3.  Onward Homes subject to regular pressure via emails and phone calls to arrange a meeting with Leaseholders to discuss previous failings, broken promises, unacceptable current performance, apparent failures to subject their selected Third Parties to project milestone success / acceptance criteria. In addition, we are highly focussed on scrutinising and challenging some forthcoming variations to service charges and likely further Section 20 notices

End Game

       1. Mission completion means we are satisfied with 1) the status quo, 2) the incumbent or newly appointed Managing Agent’s committed plans and forecast cost for future for the Canterbury Gardens estate align closely with the agreed Mission Statement.
