Leaseholds are a nightmare from front to back right? Why are they still a thing.
Comment on Judges to rule on whether tenants in England have right to keep a pet

This will be of limited value if they don’t also address leasehold restrictions on pets. “No pets” is written into my landlord’s lease (and every leasehold contract I’ve ever seen) so they can’t allow us to have a pet even if they wanted to.

I agree they’re a nightmare, but how else do you deal with situations like a block of flats where you only own one bit of a building?

The block of flats would be council owned by the tax payer… taps-head.jif

Or the residents. And what if the majority of residents didn’t want pets?

Unless they outlaw agents / landlords asking if they have a pet, nothing will change.
Because you bet your ass they’ll be picking tenants without pets if they don’t want pets.
