Hello - we're new on LZ, so I hope it's OK posting this. We are a community group looking for a residential property to rent in North London/Camden at just above LHA rates. We can offer guaranteed rent/lease for 2-5 years (backed by a housing association.) But how do we find an interested landlord? People keep telling us it'll be easy, but it isn't! Any ideas? We have zero budget for ads. Happy to explain further if people want to know more. Thanks.

My zone 2 plumber is £65/hr but Pimlico (for instance - no idea why anyone uses them) can be over £100. But even at that rate there would have had to have been a lot of complications to add up to almost...-

The total cost being claimed is £492.50 for the plumber's work and £180 to repair the wall....-

by junglerowerHi, I have exchanged contracts on a house which I will buy with a buy-to-let mortgage.
The current owner has bought a new house of David Wilson's homes and they have taken his old house in exchange, which I now bought via them.
His new house is not yet finished, so he has to move somewhere...-

Admittedly, I haven't informed the HMRC. Thankfully, I have a separate bank account solely for house rent and expenses. I've also kept a spreadsheet. This will be taken care of in the coming weeks. I don't want this hanging over my head...

My friend (read: frenemy) has displayed contempt for me, while he's lived here. I knocked £60 off the rent and £270 off...-

by fpyardsThe deposit is managed through Foxton's online portal, but I am discussing this with the landlord directly who is handling the repair. At the moment I've asked them for all relevant documentation - quotes, invoice, detailed description of work and photos so I can evaluate what has actually been done...
