Luckily it's a buy to rent building so the residents are only on tenancies and can leave easily, they aren't stuck with long term leases on worthless flats like those who brought ones in cladded buildings.
If I was one of them though, I'd be trying to get the developers to pay for my moving costs.
Absolutely. I'm fully on board with them demolishing it, but they should also be liable for all costs involved with the tennants along with compensation for the additional time and effort required in the tennants part. The developers need to be held accountable for every aspect of this, not just their own costs in the demo/rebuild.
