L's right of access for inspection or viewing?

by Lawcruncher

What follows is my analysis of the position. It should not be treated as gospel.

Part 1

It is often asserted that a landlord, even if the tenant has agreed to it in the tenancy agreement or lease, may not enter premises without the consent of the tenant. Whilst on the whole...

Reply to Cannabis Farm discovery

by Jon66

Wait until the day after the last day of the tenancy. Ensure tenants have vacated. Quietly remove the plants and dispose of them. Arrange for the electrical supply to be reinstated. Job done.

Reply to Can a tenant grant access to neighbour's garden?

by victorian18

I feel fairly confident that the asbestos company is legit. They prepared a 54-page document describing the methods with risk assessments and HSE was notified. I shared all of this with the neighbour. It is the most dangerous type of asbestos so they need to build a tent-like structure so that everything...

Can a tenant grant access to neighbour's garden?

by victorian18

This sounds like a simple question but I am struggling to find the answer. Basically I need to access my neighbour's garden to attend to my wall which is on the boundary line. The reason for this is another long story. The house currently has tenants. The tenants are happy for me to access but the landlord...

Reply to Cannabis Farm discovery

by Ollie2000
