Reply to Huge change for renters to be announced TOMORROW in major shake-up of tenant’s rights

by Nelly30

This is exactly true and I've once even had Shelter try to convince the judge that our notices were incorrectly served as one of the tenants was put in prison for fraud!

I find it quite hypocritical that mortgage companies/Banks on the other hand can evict tenants much quicker and are effectively...

Huge change for renters to be announced TOMORROW in major shake-up of tenant’s rights

by mokka

Opinions?

RENTERS will finally be given rights against shameless landlords chucking them out for no reason.

Reply to Statutory declaration DPS

by ash72

A notary or solicitor will charge between £7 - £15 to stamp the document, you should then scan it and send it to the DPS (that's what I do) as well as posting it (normal posting 1st or 2nd class), once they receive it (usually 5-10 days, to start their process) they will then wait 21 +1 days for the...

by jpkeates

I'm not sure what the DPS could possibly do with the deposit money if they don't return it.
They can't acquire ownership of it, so they're just stuck looking after it.

Reply to Leaving my letting agents as a landlord .

by jpkeates

There's no reason to change the agreements unless there's wording in there that's no longer possible - like who they have to pay rent to or who holds their deposit.

Ideally, even that could be corrected by a simple letter to each tenant confirming what's changed, rather than issuing a new...

Reply to evicting a DSS lodger, do I need a court order to do so?

by Flashback1966

I suggest you send her that notice by post. Basically posting it to your own address. You can post it from the post office and ask them for proof of posting (which is free) on top your postage cost.

I suggest you include the section from Shelter web site. Remind her your don't need Court...
