However, many shared ownership leaseholders, for example, face restrictions in their leases that prevent them subletting altogether or setting rent at a market rate during a sublet. These restrictions were never designed with today’s housing pressures in mind. Without reform, we risk trapping leaseholders between outdated lease terms and new regulatory obligations, with no room to renegotiate. This is about proportionality, flexibility and modernising the rental framework to reflect the real experiences of those people living in it today.
