Ahh, yes. You need to give them skin in the game. A £1K PSTP deposit would
be a good start.

Not nearly enough.

Get an adult to explain to you what "a good start" means, would you?

We've had all these warm words before. For too many years residents
have moaned about the increase in the annual service charge, which has
only gone up by 10% in ten years. We should have been paying much
more. The new chairman calculated that if every resident had paid just
£13.91 a month since the inception of the estate, the sinking fund
would now contain the £100,000 needed to replace the PSTP.

The "good start" was always just pie-in-the-sky.
