AST and relatives

15-12-2011, 16:05 PM

Dear all,

does anyone know if there is any provision in the HA1988 with regarsd to renting to relatives?, i.e. son/daughter. I'm sure I read something about this being an exception to creating a tenancy - but I cannot find anything about it now. Have I imagined this? Thanks all.

No such issue - although if son/daughter intends to claim housing benefit the that may give rise to complications.

Serve MCOLs on all parties - the guarantors may not like the idea of a CCJ on their credit file!

Reply to Future Issues for LL and Tenants

It seems so easy to just say up and leave for another area of the country.

We assume that the person is 100% working remotely, when that might not be the case.

We assume that the industry to which the person is trained has work near their new location

We assume...

Future Issues for LL and Tenants

by Hudson01

Looking at the news today (similar to yesterday and the day before), they are talking about combined energy bills of 4-5k a year...... by April 2023. There are many properties up north where the combined rental per annum is between 6-7k....... that is insane.

Could we have a situation...

Reply to Gas Central Heating Included in Rent

Local marketing and the running of HMOs dictate that this was the only way to get a tenant into many properties. I agree with the premise but cannot see an alternative for many specialised properties...

Gas Central Heating Included in Rent

by patray

I am trying to work out the best way to recoup some of the increase in the cost of the gas given that we can only put up the rent once a year but the cost is going to be increased in October and probably every 3 months.

It's not possible to forsee how much prices will rise or what help...

The Section 21 notice I served said "you are required to leave the below address after 18 April, 2022" so DoricPixie is right. It's just a notice to quit and the start of the process. So your Section 21 can be ignored by your tenant. Don't place any high hopes on it.

He isn't...

By all accounts, just reading on here, many landlords ARE leaving the sector especially with the EPC must be "C" rating, just added to the many hoops to jump through. Favourable rights to tenants on the increase defending a "dont pay if you dont want to" attitude pushed by Shelter...

The central heating is included in the rent.

I would not include any utilities for a single let, much simpler.

If you have converted without Building Control approval, you have skipped some major costs (to your benefit), whilst sacrificing Fire Safety, Energy Performance, Sound...
