In the part II of the Property Market Update Q1 2023, we discuss the challenges of the rental market in prime central London.

Landlords are leaving the market due to tax changes, but there is a lack of new landlords entering the market to replace them. This has resulted in a shortage of rental stock and rising prices. Build-to-Rent is part of the solution, but it is only a small proportion of the market and cannot scale quickly enough to meet demand. The rental market needs more regulation, but isolating individual landlords will not help first-time buyers get onto the property ladder. Providing good property management and refurbishing properties can help to manage the situation. However, challenges loom on the horizon, such as the need to bring properties up to a C rating for EPCs, especially in conservation areas. The experts believe that the rental dilemma is an ongoing challenge that will continue to be an issue in the short to medium term, and forecast that rents will outpace prices over the next five years due to a lack of supply.

Marcus Dixon is the Director of UK Residential Research at JLL, where he leads a team focused on generating fresh housing market insights to bolster the growth of the residential business. With over 18 years of residential research experience, Marcus previously worked at LonRes as the Head of Research and Data Analysis, where he established the research department in 2015.

Liam Monaghan is an expert in the Prime Central London property market, with almost 15 years of experience. As the Managing Director of LCP, his knowledge is a valuable resource for clients looking to buy or refurbish properties in the Private Rented Sector and Homeowner markets.

Tom is the Head of UK Residential Research at Knight Frank, where he leads a team that produces reports such as the Super Prime London Insight, London Residential Review, and the flagship Prime London indices. With a background as a former Bloomberg and Reuters property journalist, Tom has contributed to various reports such as The Wealth Report, Active Capital, and Global Cities.

Our guest today is Katherine Simpson, Partner at a London law firm. Katherine is a recognised expert in the specialist field of leasehold enfranchisement, particularly renowned for her expertise in the Leasehold Reform Act 1967, and recommended by Legal 500 UK for the year 2022.

We touch upon the history of leaseholds and focus on leasehold enfranchisement, examining the proposed changes for lease extensions as outlined in the January 2020 consultation paper. We talked with Katherine about the expenses of obtaining a lease extension or collective enfranchisement, reforms that are being suggested, and who is exempt from them.

Leasehold extension and leasehold enfranchisement are two related but distinct concepts in the context of property ownership.

Leasehold extension refers to the process of extending the length of a leasehold, giving the leaseholder more time to occupy the property. This can be done by negotiating with the freeholder or through a legal process.

Leasehold enfranchisement, on the other hand, is a broader concept that includes the option of extending a leasehold but also gives the leaseholder the right to purchase the freehold of the property, giving them full ownership rights.

https://londonproperty.co.uk/en/connecting-london-homeowners-with-trusted-tradespeople/

When it comes to home renovations and repairs, finding reliable tradespeople can be a daunting task.

That's where The Page comes in. Co-founder Thomas shares how their service simplifies the process by connecting customers with a select group of vetted and professional tradespeople in London. The Page's approach involves personal consultation with customers to understand their specific needs and match them with the right local tradespeople for the job.

We also touch upon the fact that preventative maintenance is crucial to keeping your home in good condition. It's essential to address issues as they arise and be proactive in identifying potential problems and taking steps to prevent them from happening. Regularly servicing your boiler, having electrical checks, and properly preserving your garden during the winter are all critical components of preventative maintenance.

These simple steps can save you a lot of time, money, and stress in the long run by preventing costly repairs and prolonging the life of your home's systems and features.

https://londonproperty.co.uk/en/how-to-value-tenants-improvements-for-leasehold-enfranchisement/

Our guest in today's podcast is Thomas Jefferies, an experienced property litigation barrister and an authority on the subject of leasehold enfranchisement.

When it comes to leasehold enfranchisement, not all of the changes done by tenants add to the property, most of them are just repairs. From a valuation point of view, to be legally categorised as an improvement, a change needs to make the property worth more. This can be seen as unfair on the tenants as they pay for all that work, but then have to pay the additional value in all evaluations.

On the topic of Do's and Don'ts, Thomas's advises all tenants to keep all the records of the improvements done during the lease.  For landlords, Thomas recommends an inspection every few years, looking for unauthorised alterations.
