Reply to TDS requiring court order

by landlord-man

If they vacated in March, isnt mid October a little late to be asking for help.

I take it you have new tenants now.

YOU made the mistake (which we all do) but you should just accept it, learn from it and move on.

By all means offer them 50% of their deposit...

TDS requiring court order

by memkad

Hello all,

As an amateur landlord, I have made quite a big mistake.

I’ve let a house to a limited company and used an AST template from the Law Society, not realising that the document is not valid for use with companies.

All was well until March this year when...

Rent Increase

by TREK

I am a landlord and have been letting a property out to tenants for £600 PCM for 4 years with no rent increases, i have not had my eye on the ball for 18 months and have just found out that very similar properties in the area are going for £800 PCM. What is the maximum i could raise the rent at the...

I would suggest you might get away with £50 pcm increase with an explanation that a rent has not gone up for 4 years so there needs to be a significant rent rise. Then £25 cpm each year until you have caught up bit. Seems unfair to evict tenants for you taking you eye off the ball!

Landlords are actually getting £800 as there is a massive demand in the area as very few properties available for rent, the market has gone crazy, £1200 for a 3 bed semi in Liverpool....

Can I use an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement for a 2 month rental?

by stanleyman

Hi! I would like to rent out the flat I own on a short-term 2 month basis. My freeholder permits me to have an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement so I would like to get one in place for my guest and then buy appropriate landlord insurance to cover me for public liability, personal injury, damage to...

Is the £800 what they are being advertised for or what LL's are actually getting?

Reply to Section 21 abolition - timetable

by Kape65

Thanks, that sounds hopeful, so I'm guessing their is no way they can just abolish it overnight. I have a property that will not make the proposed C grade so I am going to sell it now because I can see it becoming a major headache when S21 is gone. I was hoping not to issue notice before Christmas if...
