The suggestion by some freeholders and their representatives that ground rent is a contribution towards building safety remediation is incorrect. Leaseholders do not believe and should not expect that ground rent is used as a proxy for an additional service charge. It is shameful that some freeholders have invoked a misleading narrative to suggest that residents may be endangered if the government caps ground rents. The potential that some freeholders could face insolvency due to lost ground rent income is a risk which the government has identified and can mitigate, although freeholders have provided no evidence to support their claim that a cap may result in “widespread insolvency” of freeholders.
