Response to this request is long overdue. Although not legally required to do so, we would have expected Genesis Housing Group to have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Genesis Housing Group,

I’d like to sell my 25% share of my property. Before I can contact a reputable estate agents to sell my property on my behalf, I’m aware that I must instruct you to sell the property first. I’ve researched this process and also spoke to neighbours and others who have been through this experience, and it doesn’t leave me with very much confidence that you will be proactive enough to sell my property.

Therefore, I would like to know stats on how many properties you have been able sell first time vs the amount of times you have failed and the seller has had to instruct an estate agent.

If possible, id like to see statistics dating back from 2013 to now, broken down in yearly percentages.

If the percentage of homes not sold are high, then I would like an analysis to why.

Yours faithfully,

O Duffy
