Unless the two occupants are on a joint tenancy agreement, the landlord will be liable for council tax anyway.

As said above, unless he's trying it on he is very ignorant of his legal reponsibilities.
It's probably a mixture as he does get some things right. (If they don't cost too much).
I seem to know more than him, reading on here is responsible for that. (Thanks all).
I'm not sure just how many other properties he (his family bussiness) have but it's quite a few both residental and commercial.
(From talking to local tradesmen one of their problems is getting paid if they do any work for them.
It's a case of drive the price right down then don't pay for months after the work has been done).
That's why I want a written TA, my name only, whole property, (sameish rent), before doing anything else with the CT.
Just to legally issue a new TA he would have to get the property up to a better standard than it is currently.

by loanarrangerMy understanding based on your descriptions does not place the property as an HMO as these are 2 families, others however may hold a different view

by DPT57If his conviction is spent, then under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act its not something they'd be forced to take account of. I think its probably the abusive behaviour that you should focus on, with formal complaints to L&Q from everyone affected and if necessary escalated to the regulator....

by nukecadSorry for a rambling post, but it's a bit of a rambling situation.
Our property is classed as an HMO, and so the LL is responsible for the council tax.
Background:

Reply to 'Declassify' a small HMO?Even if it's just you there, if he retains some rooms for himself (or so he can rent them later to someone else). then it might not be a HMO in the usual sense,but would be a "HMO for council tax purposes" so he'd be responsible for all council tax
The absent sharer , as they...-
