How many hearings, how many meetings, how may hours are they billing? What's their hourly rate?

Does this include the conveyance?

Reply to Building damage?

by ram

Not to put a damper on things, but insurance is for accidents / unforseen occurences / trees falling on building / cars.- etc

Insurance does not cover for deliberate acts which caused a fault.
Thats why why drill round holes in bricks, put a plug in it then screw though the plug....

In the event that any further opening...

Within the service charge there is of course a charge for Insurance. Presume if any work ever needs doing it would come from that Insurance policy? And then possibly an increase in future Insurance cost

Reply to Isolating beyond the end of a fixed term

by HantsAgent

Indeed. And my worry for the tenants here is that this technically means their tenancy could have continued for an effective additional two months (unable to give a valid NtQ until the beginning of the next tenancy period and that notice having to be a full tenancy period)

Isolating beyond the end of a fixed term

by HantsAgent

Is anyone aware of anything giving tenants some leeway if they have to isolate and it takes them beyond of their fixed term?

I'm trying to help the student son of a friend whose landlord appears to be being a little opportunistic because they had to stay in the property for a few days over...
