by westbrookdiane3

Reply to Cheapskate landlord wants to end tenancy

by royw

My understanding is that L is only responsible for an infestation present at the start of the tenancy, after that it's Ts responsibility. My council will send pest control for rats for free. They don't all but it would be worth asking. I would see what else is available for rent. Given his attitude...

Cheapskate landlord wants to end tenancy

by Lucylou99

Hi just after some advice. I have been renting the property for 4.5 years, 4 of those with a fantastic landlord and 6 months with a new landlord. When he took over he immediately increased the rent by 25%, annoying but perfectly within his rights. The main issue is maintainance and repairs. I cant report...

Reply to How to track down landlord

by kelbol

I thought about that but I don't see the tenants doing that. We'll all get on the wrong side of the LL if we force him to provide an address he didn't want to provide in the first place and he may well use the agent's address....

How to track down landlord

by kelbol

Next door property is being rented out and had the roof redone. Mine got damaged in the process.

He's British but lives abroad. The phone number...

Reply to Cheapskate landlord wants to end tenancy

by theartfullodger

You say he increased rent by 25% and that was within his rights. He only has the right to propose an increase (you have the right to propose a lower increase or indeed a decrease). You had the right to appeal the increase: Did you?

Did he serve you with S48 and s3 notices? S48 needs an...

Reply to Property damaged. Advice please

by Perce

When the police came to check on my tenant and he did not open the door they went to all the neighbours in the block to enquiry about him if they saw him. So someone should have spotted him in the garden listening to music or saw him if he was around. People notice everything. They also checked the...

Apologies if something similar has already been covered elsewhere. I did try to search but couldn't find anything that matched my situation particularly closely. A huge thanks in advance to any of you who do take the time to read and advise.

TLDR version: Police have forced entry into my...
