BBC political reporter, Surrey
A woman who is struggling to sell her flat due to lack of fire safety certificate, has said that she cannot continue living there.
The 65 -year -old Sharon Naidu wants to get out of Surrey, Surrey, to live with the family in Bracnell, but says that Southwell Park Road is struggling to get a hostage for a potential buyer for his property in Southwell Park Road.
Remediation works on three apartment blocks in the courtyard to bring them to safety standards in the next year’s autumn.
Developer Crest Nicholson has refused to comment.
In 2017, there were changes in the Granfel Fire Disaster, including inspection of buildings to examine the risks of fire.
The BBC understands that TRAI Fire, a company run by engineer Adam Kiziaq, was appointed to evaluate in the courtyard and the flats are considered safe.
But The way Mr. Kiziaq was concerned The fire safety certificates known as EWS1 forms were signed, some lenders led to withdrawing mortgage offers in the first year.
The BBC also understands that Crest Nicolson reviewed the TRAI fire reports and stated that it was not satisfied with the results and appointed a separate fire engineering practice to make new assessments, which found that they need to work inside and out of the block to make them safe.
Mr. Kiziaq has been contacted for comment.
Fire alarms are installed in flats in the courtyard and there is a “waking clock” in the block, which involves hiring people around the clock, looking for fire signs.
“I don’t know what I’m going to do”
Ms. Naidu told the BBC Radio Surrey that Crest Nicolson was providing the “Comfort of Comfort” to the lenders who outlines the company’s commitment to secure development, but many lenders are still not ready to provide hostage to buyers.
He said that the employed work is not getting enough to help in his position soon and believe that they will continue for a few more years.
“I felt that I could get cash for my flat and go and where I wanted – to retire – and I would not be able to do it, and I can’t do it,” she said.
“And I can’t wait until 2027 because I can no longer live here, so I don’t know where I am getting the money.
“I don’t have money to pay bills and live here … and I can’t sell it, so I can’t win … I don’t know what I am going to do.”
Ms. Naidu said that she has to choose whether to pay bills including service fees, or buy food.
Pinnacle Property Management, which manages the development for the private company, the courtyard (The Etrium) Management Limited, said that it understands that it can struggle to pay the service fee for the owners and offer various options including monthly payments.
Ms. Naidu said that due to lack of a legal document, property is also being sold, which allows a change in land fares within the lease, known as variation.
He claimed that rising fees are also demanding hostage for buyers.
The E & J Estates, who is an agent for the company, for the head lease (under an agreement for the freeholder), said that the BBC has agreed to other works of variation in the first courtyard, which are usually acceptable for most lenders.
It said that it is open to work with lease holders and buyers wherever it is possible.
At the work of treatment, a spokesperson said: “While E and J Estates continue to monitor the progress, responsibility for the project oversee … the management company and its agent lies with.”
For Surrey Heath, Liberal Democrat MP, Dr. Al Pinkaron, who is supporting Ms. Naidu, said that the government is not enough to support the people around the UK, which are being affected by similar problems with EWS1 forms.
“Fundamentally, there has been a complete lack of leadership from the top of the government,” he said.
“I have held several meetings with the ministers of the government to alert them for this crisis.
“They didn’t know about it until I brought it to them, or at least they were not taking it seriously,” he said.
Housing, communities and the Ministry of Local Government have been contacted for comment.
