Does live-in landlord have the right arrange viewings of the tenant's room?

by PeckhamLiveInLandlord

I'd be interested to know if a live-in landlord has the right to arrange viewings of the tenant's room. I know that showing the flat is fine, but what about the actual room of the tenant? (Some rooms have locks on them and the tenants might have the keys).

Reply to 5 Yr Residential tenancy agreement

by Hudson01

Do not agree to anything more than 12 months, as said all manner of things can happen, all my tenancies are 12 months with a 6 month break clause and then they go into periodic, if the tenant wants something else then we simply part waves. My property.... my rules.

Reply to Section 21 and Gas Certificate

by ash72

Was the T in the property when the GS check was being conducted, as usually the engineer will have given them a copy of it at the time.

Section 21 and Gas Certificate

by Mr. Sparkle

About 3 weeks ago I had a gas certificate issued.

I forgot to email the tenant a copy of the document.

I plan to evict the tenant with either a Section 8 or 21 and want to know whether there is any issue regarding the delay to give the tenant the gas cert?

There...

Do you have a BTL mortgage, as there's no point providing a 5 year deed as most lenders terms wont allow it. Why do you want to offer them it for so long? Anything can happen in 5 years (as the current virus has shown, as well as making evictions harder), and the deed needs to signed and witnessed,...

Reply to Property Owner But Rent Goes Elsewhere

by ash72

Why don't you simply add her as an employee and pay her from the rental amount, to avoid the issues previously mentioned or alternatively she invoices you on periodic basis.

Property Owner But Rent Goes Elsewhere

by Cotton

I am the legal owner of a BTL and pay the mortgage

However, my family member is the 'landlord' as she manages the place (e.g. arranges repairs, certificates, liaising with tenant etc).

What I want to know is if it is okay for her to collect the rent to keep for herself? or...

Yes, it's no longer an AST, I would suggest you give them a 12 month contract and explain you will renew each year (subject to rent being paid and property looked after).
