Reply to EPC Certificates for 1977 Rent Act Tenants

by jpucng62

ASH72 is correct - but we live in hope that the legislation as proposed may change or be delayed.

In your situation here is likely to be an exemption or some sort. If the work is very invasive your tenants could refuse to have it done, or worse case scenario you do the £10k of work &...

EPC Certificates for 1977 Rent Act Tenants

by Katherine Parsons

Is there any information you can point me to that deals with this topic? It is unlikely that I will be able to get my properties up to a Band C in time for 2028 and I have sitting tenants who are, by law, entitled to stay put in their properties and can't just be evicted because they have a right to...

Access to neighbouring property act.

by Plumbob

Has anyone successfully used the act for the purpose it is designed for please? Did the court action take forever to obtain the judgement? I'm about to get notified by my solicitor that we need to go to court to be able to cut the huge ivy growth on the flank wall growing up over the roof now. T I ...

Government handouts to tenants or landlords

by AndrewDod

Here is another bit of pending legislation/government spittle that has been ill thought through.

My kid has a tenancy which includes Council Tax and Energy as part of the rent. Her rent has gone up a lot as a result of increased cost of these inclusions.

Now after the fact...

Reply to EPC Certificates for 1977 Rent Act Tenants

by ash72

As details aren't confirmed by the government, the guess is you'd have to pay 10k worth of improvements and then you would get an exemption on the property for the next 10 years, and pay again every 10 years to maintain the exemption.

Alternatively you'd have to sell the property with the...

Lodger is in police custody for weeks or years. What to do with lodger's possessions?

by Wauden

Advice please!
I am a residential landlord and I have had a lodger until last week. It was definitely a lodger.

Unfortunately the ex lodger is in custody now and will have a crown court appearance in a month's time. Lodger will stay locked up to the crown court date. The charge is...

Reply to Lodger is in police custody for weeks or years. What to do with lodger's possessions?

by Wauden

YES. Unfortunately, I was. You will understand that it would be unwise to go into details here.

The charge was 'wounding with intent', which is serious. Obviously I am NOT going to be in contact with ex lodger. Police instructions and nobody in their right mind contemplates contacting...
