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...

I do hope that;s not because she;s not registered with any redress scheme and/or has little or no training or experience in this game.

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...

annual leaseholders meeting

by milosz

In a block of flats owned by a limited company of which the leaseholders each have a share of the freehold, a meeting with key agenda items of 'major works/future planning' and 'service charge forecast' is to be held as an 'annual leaseholders meeting' rather than an AGM. The reasons given are that:...

Reply to Property Owner But Rent Goes Elsewhere

by jpkeates

It's not illegal, but it is complicated for tax purposes.
There's a reasonable chance you'll end up being taxed on the income without actually receiving it.

And, as noted above, if you have a mortgage on the property, the terms may not allow such an arrangement....

Reply to Rent arrears 6 months - Moved out without forwarding address

by jpkeates

By just moving out, they haven't ended the tenancy, and, as you don't seem to have served notice yourself, you've left yourself a little exposed.

Using MCOL you have two options.
Use the property's address as the last contact address you've been given.
Unless they redirect their...

Rent arrears 6 months - Moved out without forwarding address

by Purple80

Can I please get some advise on tenants who did not pay the rent for 6 months and have now moved out without providing a forwarding address.
They breached the terms of the contract:
- Rent arrears for six months
- Pet in the apartment when there is a strict no pet policy on the development...

theartfullodger,

It is probably not wise to disclose too much info online.

I will check my mortgage/insurance first... and yes all funds will be disclosed.

Thank you
