Landlords excuse: building has been lived in extensively, and needs a multimillion pound refurbishment. Building was completely refurbished in 2017.

150 people served with section 21 eviction notices.

Update: There’s now a petition you can sign to counter this predatory landlord behaviour: https://chng.it/P2j7yj2xM4

    And if they do need to do a refurbishment, why not one floor at a time? Why should the tenants be burdened with the cost of moving? If work needs doing, pay for the tenants to live elsewhere for the duration so they don’t lose their homes.

    My guess is these will be back in the market as ‘luxury’ flats in 6 months’ time.

      I don’t think you are wrong.
