Its not his responsibility to fix it. As you well know. Must be awful to fail so badly at life it makes you this bitter.
As covered previously, I own a leasehold flat (private) which I previously lived in but now I rent out. As part of my leasehold agreement, I have buildings insurance included.
Any damage to the roof, I would expect them to pick it up and repair it ASAP. If it was me, I would have expected the insurance to cover my temporary accommodation costs (I imagine this would be retrospectively).

haha, i don't have difficulties with life.
I am just saying that from the first op post it sounded a bit entitled and a non issue in the grand scheme of things.
Now he says that he bought it for full market price and potentially even prevented from fixing it himself due to the council restrictions. In that case i would still move to temporary accommodation on my own if it was not suitable and try and claim it back from the insurance/council.
it is true i am resentful of all these people with big families who usually get all benefits while having children is completely out of reach for working people. While this appears to not be the case in this instance and i apologise for jumping to that conclusion right away.
It is fine you can insult me, because i am not very precious like that.

To be honest you sound like you need help such a horrible attitude you have if you have nothing possative tosay then why bother talking on a thread nasty liitle person
Shut up. Or take a holiday. You decide.
it most certainly is inflammatory and trolling - it is adding nothing to the OP's question. it is nothing more than flaming the OP.
groen has difficulties with life? so that justifies being a horrid and almost abusive individual? I think not. I'm not wound up by him, more a mild annoyance. given the spiel about a members charter and making the place a friendlier more welcoming forum, allowing this clearly bitter individual to continue to post seems to fly in the face of what the charter is supposed to be trying to achieve
I don't believe it to be deliberately inflammatory, and he's not trolling - he genuinely thinks like that.
Absurd and, sometimes, unpleasant his posts may be, but I would find GD a poorer place without his input (and the input of others like him). Great entertainment.
Our monthly service charge includes building insurance, I don't have the option of buying my own cover.
The service charge has tripled in recent years as maintenance had been carried out to outbuildings and gardens etc. The roof repairs will increase the service charge but we're ok with that.
If we had buildings insurance directly with the insurer that's who we would contact, pay for hotels and removal costs in advance and make a claim later.
As it's is the council say we can't make a claim for anything.
CAB are on hold to the lease holder advisory service as it's a grey area. They have some documents which say removal costs should be covered but as we're are not "homeless" we don't have the rights others would have. We have a home, just aren't allowed inside.

No its not
it is in some ways. especially financially.
Horrible situation to be in for you and your family. Hopefully CAB can help. Got to be honest I dont have much knowledge of council leaseholds, doesnt sounds like a good thing to be in.
All the best buddy. Hope it gets sorted soon.

ok i'll maybe concede that it may not be trolling if that is how they genuinely think, but deliberately or otherwise it is inflammatory - which is totally unnecessary. he posts by, your own admission, unpleasant posts and you think the place would be poorer without his input??
anyways, best we don't keep derailing the thread by debating the pro's and cons of tolerating posters like this.
Just hope you get it sorted the way you wish. Must be horrible for you as a family of 6. The council are not doing enough i say. Why should you be forced to move into a pig sty etc? Keep us informed as there are people on here who genuinely care mate. Good luck
It just takes planning, and waiting for the right time. Especially if both parents work, plus the willingness to make sacrifices.

thats one of the key thing, if both parents work, who looks after the child during the day?
this based on the fact both parents work a typical 9 to 5 job.
Tough but yes of course it can be done.
