I probably won't be able to any, by definition, as instances where this has happened successfully, the court hasn't got involved, and therefore no case law exists.
However, there may be obiter remarks littered throughout various decisions.
Landlord's breach - how to terminate?

But, even if you're right, can you find any instances ever of L's repudiatory breach? I rather think that this is rare or even non-existent in L&T cases.

I thought the right of recission on repudiatory breach (assuming LL is in repudiatory breach) does not need the court's sanction to be effective (although a dispute may arise which may lead to the court's intervention).

Originally posted by cathad83 View PostHi,
I'm 4 months into a 12 month lease, and the Landlord has been in breach of the lease for almost the entire time (lack of repairs, mould and damp, not keeping the house in a fit state etc., despite numerous requests).
The landlord refuses to meet with us to discuss the ongoing issues, and so the only option it would seem is to terminate the lease on these grounds.
My questions are:
1. How do we legally terminate the contract?
2. How do we ensure our 6 week bond isn't witheld from us?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

* If annual rent is no more than £25k.
Above answers assume tenancy is an AST in England and Wales.

By the way the gap between the amount the owner wants from me each month, and the amount I can charge as a sublet, seems to be £450. If I price it lower, making my gross margin £350-£400, then my inbox explodes with viewing requests.
However, I have half a dozen trades to pay, namely:...-

Do any of you have any experience of this and is there a downside?
The ones that I can think of is that they don't make the second payment that they need to make halfway through. They want a 12 month tenancy with the second payment paid after four months.
Or that being new to renting...-

Thanks all for your further replies.
At the risk of outing my location, this London borough excludes section 257 HMOs from its additional licensing scheme. And besides, there is no reason to believe that this conversion didn't meet building regulations when it took place, so I don't think...-

by Section20zNot a risk at all. I am quite happy for them to blow it on drink & drugs.
As to the facts so far, no right to reside yet shown, no job, no credit, no references, and of a demographic known to be big in cultivation.
It's still a no from me....-

If she had applied prior to the expiry of her last visa, then until obtaining the decision she will be remained covered by virtue of section 3C immigration act 1971. And, when it (section 3C) kicks in then her all previous rights, privileges and visa conditions will be unaffected. For more insightful...
