Rent arrears

by MP31

Hi

I have a tenant who got in arrears in the end of 2019 by 1.5 months because of work then continued to pay full rent until Covid. He couldn't work and was unfortunate to not get furlough or any government scheme other that UC so we arranged a reduced for 4 months. Now he is behind further...

Reply to Direct Debit vs Standing Order

by ChrisDennison

Bollocks to that. There is no benefit of using one over the other. So why would a tenant who agrees to the method of payment suggested by the landlord be a 'smart tricky potential tenant'? This sounds like paranoia to me....

Direct Debit vs Standing Order

by danwestgarth

Has anyone any experience in collecting rent from tenants using Direct Debit opposed to Standing Order? From what i understand, with Direct Debit the payee (landlord) is in control, rather than the payor (tenant). JCould be a good way to minimize missed payments during covid-19. Does anyone know of...

Renovation/Improvements vs Repairs / Maintenance

by thesleepingdog

Hello,

I am having A LOT of trouble with my LL who is continually asking to carry out improvements on the property. It is literally nonstop and it has got to the stage where I am utterly fed up and want to leave.

During my tenancy he has replaced all the windows in the house,...

Tenant Repairs

by VPatel2707

Good Morning All,

Hope everyone is keeping safe!

I am about to complete on a BTL property this Friday and have a quick question in relation to how self-managed landlords manage tenant repairs.

When I personally have rented before in the past, I normally did this...

Reply to Direct Debit vs Standing Order

by Section20z

Don't think I've used a standing order for ten years. I select tenants capable of setting up monthly BACS transfers. Makes it easy if I allow them to make a deduction for a minor repair for example

Reply to Renovation/Improvements vs Repairs / Maintenance

by Beswick

Whilst it's good to have a landlord who wants to keep the property nice and well-maintained, all of these things added together do sound quite excessive - especially as none of the improvements seem to have been agreed with the tenant. After all, it's the landlord's property, but it's the tenant's...
