Pre Covid evictions

by nreid

My tenant stopped paying rent in August of 2019, and in November a notice was served. Beginning of February a possession order was granted and a judgement for money. Then the lockdown, and you can imagine the rest of the story. Now 13 months of unpaid rent. Am going out of my mind here, and nervous...

Reply to Lodger turned sour, can I kick her out sooner?

by ChrisDennison

Maybe we’re not talking about the same thing... aren’t lodgers normally staying long term, for months and years not just for a few nights or weeks? Do lodgers normally have another main residence, I thought not?

Reply to Do you regularly (or at all) increase rent for existing tenants?

by landlord-man

The problem with the "we increase to market rent" when a tenant leaves is that the longer the tenant stays (a good thing) the less and less you are getting on your investment against inflation changes.

I dont think it would make your average tenant suddenly look to move out if...

Do you regularly (or at all) increase rent for existing tenants?

by ChrisDennison

I would like to gauge your experience on this - in all my properties I have never increased rent in an existing tenancy, regardless of how long the tenant stays. Am I stupid or normal or somewhere in between?

by jpucng62

What are you in it for then? I see this as an investment and as such the aim is to make money. I can do this and give tenants a decent home to live in, but annual rent rises are part of the picture....
