Reply to S21 served during replacement tenancy

by KTC

You are confusing the requirements for a valid section 21 notice required under legislation, and break notice in accordance with the terms of your tenancy agreement.

S21 served during replacement tenancy

by Andyhambwa

Hi,

We were renting since June 2021 for a year and just recently signed tenancy agreement for another year. A week after that we received s21 from our landlord with 2 months notice.

Our tenancy agreement contains a break clause which mentions period after 4 months of the initial...

Reply to Anti Social Neighbour and potential Vermin problem

by AlexR

There is a wider issue as obviously poorly behaved neighbours also have an effect on good tenants. Rubbish storage and collection had become an issue in our area, which by coincidence is now populated by a high number of 'social ' tenants who can have difficulties with observing normal social requirements....

Anti Social Neighbour and potential Vermin problem

by red_boots2

My tenant informed me yesterday she thought she'd seen a Rat or Mouse in the Kitchen, I only live 5 mins away and popped over to have a look. I couldn't see any entry/exit points or any signs of droppings, however behind the kickboards under the boiler pipes were some partially eaten Easter eggs and...

Reply to S21 served during replacement tenancy

by Andyhambwa

Does this also apply in the case of a Replacement tenancy, please? I have seen some contradicting messages on the Internet where it was written that the "clocks don't reset in the case of a replacement tenancy" and s21 can be served sooner....

Reply to Tenant wants me to install toilet sprayer/douche attachment

by nukecad

I suppose another advantage is no paper or wet wipes so less blockages.

Of course if you are going to use a spray instead of paper then your metered water bill is going to go up.

And unless it's an electric seat type with a warm air blast then you are still going to have to...

Reply to How to resolve disrepair which is impacting my mental health

by Hudson01

I have a particular distain for conservatories, but that aside, if one is fitted then it should NOT leak, and if it does then the LL should have it fixed, if its a bit of polycarbonate nailed to a softwood frame then fair enough, that is NOT a conservatory, but if it resembles the '' Plastic temporary...

How to resolve disrepair which is impacting my mental health

by KevinB47

Hello

I have lived in my home for 2 years and the landlord is ignoring disrepair which I report to him directly.

In May 2022 I reported that every time it rains, the conservatory leaks in various places and the rainwater drips through and causes leaks on the floor.
I...

by AndrewDod

Some so called conservatories are really just greenhouses, and greenhouses are not necessarily designed to be waterproof.
If it has a concrete floor, and no electrics that might be what OP has.
