Why did you rent the property for only 15 days? -
He's talking about 'long term' damage that is unlikely to have been caused in just 15 days.
If you had ripped his shower off the wall, damaged the shower cubicle, broken the table, etc. then he would have a claim against you.

Actually we know nothing. Just a vague, imprecise unclear snippet of what he purportedly did. OP needs to test his case in court.Comment

I was moving home. I found that more convenient than staying with a friend. Another question was why 400 pounds. I honestly thought that it was normal. This is in London.Originally posted by Mrs Mug View PostComment

Hello,
I moved into a rented house a few months ago and have received a letter from the landlord's mortgage company. I then looked up the title plan and the landlord's address is this one.
The letter says:

Just to add, I don't have his details. I didn't even know his name until today. It's through an agent.

The part...20-01-2019, 23:08 PM -
I have something similar. Couple rented my property, husband die. Wife paid first lapsed payment a few days before the next month was due. Is about to default on two payments now and has ceased comms with the managing agents.
Initially I did say she could have up to 22 February to get caught...20-01-2019, 05:49 AM -

Hi all,
My tenant gave verbal permission to the plumber to be allowed access to the property and is now saying that he didn't and is accusing us of breaking tenancy law by accessing the property.
he has now said that items have been stolen from the home and he will be pressing charges....20-01-2019, 15:37 PM -
Reply to Tenant pressing chargesI think you are past that point now...
Just take the actions that are needed, ignore your worry of aggravating the situation.
Appoint a solicitor, Ensure all your paperwork is in order, get S21 and S8 (if any grounds can be applied) issued....20-01-2019, 21:35 PM -
Reply to Tenant pressing chargesYes will cease contact and ask the solicitor to deliver the S21.
