Reply to Section21 issued before March lockdown and latest developments

by 123Landlord

Thanks for the update.

What I think you're describing is what I consider to be a really muddled and unhelpful part of the possession process (even before Covid). This is the way I understand it ... Local Authorities have a duty to offer advice and ultimately to rehouse people who are homeless...

Section21 issued before March lockdown and latest developments

Reply to Scrapping of s21 postponed

by 123Landlord

Can I assume there's agreement on this forum that it's a very important statistic considering recent and current debate? Do you know any organisation representing landlords that publishes an estimate? If I was putting together a list of 'key messages' this would be one. It would go something like this:...

Reply to Let a house to local council

by Hetjim
