Reply to Future Issues for LL and Tenants

by DoricPixie

Home owners with mortgages were treated similarly to tenants during COVID-19. They were allowed to take mortgage payment holidays without fear of court proceedings.

If anything I wonder if escalating fuel bills will push forward new legislation that will require rental properties to be...

Future Issues for LL and Tenants

by Hudson01

Looking at the news today (similar to yesterday and the day before), they are talking about combined energy bills of 4-5k a year...... by April 2023. There are many properties up north where the combined rental per annum is between 6-7k....... that is insane.

Reply to re-entry clause any use?

1. Ask to see checks made by the agent. (I would not accept a tenant without seeing full checks and making my own enquiries.)
2. Is the tenant the person who applied to the agent one has to ask? I would make a 'clumsy enquiry' by knocking the door on some pretext and or stake out the property...

Reply to Replacing windows

by Codger

I would get the window firm to explain the process and benefits. Once tenants meet the tradesmen things run smoother.
