Reply to Inventory done without giving me advance notice - discrepancies found

by jpucng62

I would write the discrepancies on the inventory and then sign it and return it. Keep a copy for when you move out.

Inventory done without giving me advance notice - discrepancies found

by forest777

Dear all,

I picked up keys to a property on Monday 19th April and given the inventory which was done on Friday 16th April. The inventory was done without telling me when it was going to happen - that is when I asked the LA about it, he merely told me that it was already done. The TA began...

Reply to Rent arrears

by Berlingogirl

Have you still got a contact number for them? Text them immediately asking for a forwarding address saying you need to write to them about the outstanding arrears. Do this before he changes his number. If he doesn't reply ask again saying you will write to him at his last known address (that'll probably...

Reply to Rent arrears

by Movieman

can anyone recommend a no fee no find service to find tenants, my tenant owes me about £5k and I'm considering going after him or at least have the satisfaction of registering CCJ against him and his wife.

He is so dumb though that he will spend more money trying to avoid the debt than...

Politely decline and firmly require it to be removed. Keep evidence of those requests and photos of sofa in case of any police involvement

Can I take previous tenants furniture?

by JohnMM96

The landlord asked if we wanted the sofa removed since it wasn't advertised as being part of the flat since it belonged to the previous tenant. We said we would keep it. The tenant moved out a year ago so there is zero expectation of him reclaiming the sofa. He left it because he didn't want it. We...

Reply to Eviction advice

by ba_baracuss

The delay because I don't know what's going on. The tenant has been all over the place for a while due to family issues etc, and so it's possible that she has had some kind of breakdown or something and may not even be at the address. I'd imagine she could get council help for the rent. If I go the...

Eviction advice

by ba_baracuss

Hi, I have a tenant who is now several months in arrears. She has changed her phone number and does not answer the door. I've sent an informal letter asking her to get in touch, which has been ignored. She's been pretty flaky for a while and it seems like she's decided to stick her head in the sand...
