Reply to Tenant withholding rent - mould?

by Jon66

Possibly, if they bring it up as a defence, even with no evidence it's possible with a sympathetic judge, the hearing could be adjourned pending evidence being provided, which of course will lead to a delay of at least 4 - 6 weeks.

Why are you reluctant to use a s21?...

Tenant withholding rent - mould?

by mrs1975

Hello can someone help? My tenant is stating that there is mould and damp in the flat and is withholding rent.

Reply to Tenant removed items and agent negligent

by AndrewDod

by A tenant

Hi,

Tricky Situation: Moving out - Furniture

by london91

I want to get opinions on a matter that's related to moving out and furniture.

I rent a 2 bedroom house. I have a relaxed landlord that does the minimum but she's kind and mostly fair. I'm very good friends with her granddaughter. Sometimes the line is blurry with tenant-landlord communication...

Reply to The technicalities of communal lighting on a key meter

by landlord-man
