The housing association has made attempts to buy the property but has “failed as the person claiming ownership of the flat cannot prove that he has title to the property”.
The Dunphail Drive property could be sold without the need for a compulsory purchase order as the owner has “advised that they would consider selling the flat” to LPHA. Owners will be given the opportunity to sell on a voluntary basis before a CPO is confirmed. They are able to seek compensation for the loss of their property.
