Here is what the page “Bath Residents Win Legal Battle Against Curo Over 300% Service Charge Hike” contains. Residents of a Bath apartment block have won a landmark legal victory against housing association Curo after challenging a 300% increase in service charges. The First-tier Tribunal ruled in favour of the leaseholders, who argued the jump was unreasonable and lacked transparency. The case highlights growing tensions between landlords and tenants over escalating fees for maintenance and communal services.
Tenants claimed the hike, which would have added hundreds of pounds to annual bills, was imposed without proper consultation or justification. Curo, which manages thousands of homes across the West of England, said it would review the tribunal’s decision. The ruling could set a precedent for other leaseholders facing sharp fee rises, as campaigners push for stronger regulation of service charges.
