Building on our first EWS1 form masterclass, this time we focus on leaseholder engagement, service charges and the Section 20 process.

The EWS1 form was introduced by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors as a response to lenders seeking assurance on the safety of external wall systems as a condition of approving mortgage applications for ‘high-rise’ buildings over 18 meters.

But, despite the best of intentions, the EWS1 form has created more uncertainty (and potentially cost) for all parties involved and due to the changing definition of properties that fall under its remit, the situation has become more complex and lacked clarity.

Since the EWS1 form was introduced in November 2019, the government have been forced to intervene on a number of occasions to provide additional guidance, and some funding, to address the issues. It has resulted in an ever-changing situation that remains without a satisfactory resolution.
