Reply to Green Homes Grant confusion

by Hudson01

Sadly this is likely to be true, which will simply mean that tenants will stay in their cold and not very well insulated homes whilst home owners get the grant and improve their comfort and utility bills..... hey ho....

As said the LL and his friends need to move in, by the time the notice period is up he may not have a house to go back too..... and yes call the Police on every occasion.

Possession after Tenant gives notice

by BHSteve
