Not quite. The LL can apply to Court for Right of Access & ask Court to apply costs against T.

I think you need a valid EPC before the Property can be advertised for sale/rent, but not for an eviction.

No EPC

by Onepropertypeter

I have a single property which I have owned since 1998. I currently have had the same tennent for about 10 years. When she began the tennency there was no requirement to have an epc and I was unaware that I needed one! I have decided to sell the property as I am now 70 years old and want the capital....

Reply to Asking for 35% off rent

by AndrewDod

This is not likely to be valid or easy employed. It does not sound like a deed. What witnesses were there? How many witnesses and who were they? Do you have proof of ID for the Guarantor and witnesses?

But yes, they are most likely chancers using the law to try to diddle you.

Asking for 35% off rent

by Lillylisa

Hi. I am a fairly new landlord and I only own one property. About a month ago I reached out to my tenants asking if they were okay and if they wanted to get in contact with me please do.

With your tenancy agreement
- You give the tenants a tenancy, they give you rent (consideration)

Reply to Asking for 35% off rent

by Lillylisa

To be clear: the guarantor signed the contract which has a section called The Guarantor which clearly lays out his/her legal liabilities. In this case, he is liable for all the rent not just for his nephews. I’m sure they would not want this to fall to him. They have been very good tenants so far....
