No, you cannot, especially if you bought the property with her in situ. You can offer her money, but even that could be viewed as pressurising her. Succession rights can only be exercised once and the successor would have had to be resident in the property for a certain period beforehand.

I offer no guarantee that anything I say is correct. wysiwyg

Landlord dictating minimum temperature for property

by haystack1979

Our landlord wants to insert a clause in our tenancy agreement to require us to maintain a temperature of 20 degrees in the house in order to mitigate a damp problem, is this legal? It's a very old place with a kitchen with thick stone walls which is poorly ventilated. The previous owner had the damp...

Reply to Landlord dictating minimum temperature for property

by haystack1979

Some clarification from the comments made so far; the landlord has said that we must sign a new agreement with the heating clause added or we will be served notice. The landlord is proposing to install a smart meter which he will check remotely via his phone to ensure we are complying with the heating...

Reply to Tenant Eviction.....S21 & S8 notices but Deposit blunder.

by buffalo747

jpkeates....I value your advice as I have always done in the past and the same applies with my latest headache and will deal with it as you say. It's a shame because the tenant appears to been having problems since his parents died and has gone downhill by not looking after himself or his flat. When...

Tenant Eviction.....S21 & S8 notices but Deposit blunder.

In the meantime I sent documentation to my insurance co. which was then forwarded to their solicitors as I'm covered...

Should I let my property out until May 2022 when I can sell on open market?

by JasperChadwick

Hi

I have never let out a property before, but I am thinking of doing so now, as I cannot sell my maisonette on the open market until May 2022, and, as we have done some improvements, I want to reap the full market value and not be fobbed off with a low price from the housing assoc....

Thanks for your comments. But it is the maisonette that is more the rental property than Mum's house (where we now live) which has been in my family since the seventies, and I have lived here myself, previously, as well as now. Mum's house is a lot bigger, and has lots of our family furniture here....
