Reply to Old tenant not responding - new tenant ready to move in

by vin_1983

Just to update to all - luckily the tenants have vacated, flat is in ok condition(not cleaned but not a mess), left their furniture etc so need to remove them and handed over all keys/fobs etc. So good news on possession side. Have written to them to make them aware about the expected cost+rent arrear...

Old tenant not responding - new tenant ready to move in

by vin_1983

Hi - I am really looking for some urgent guidance and help as based on other experiences it really feel everyone's rights are protected apart from landlords.

I have a tenant whose AST is ending in 3rd week of october, 2 months before the end tenant gave a notice that they would like to...

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...

by theartfullodger

Where did you get this agreement? Doesn't sound like a typical AST.

Done any training in landlord/tenant law please?

I'd have thought the simplest way is to use MCOL.

Court Ordered ex-Tenants to Pay Costs

by MAPTON

Rather cynical, but I am hoping ex-tenants don't pay up!

Assuming they don't, as I already have the Court Order for Costs, how do I go about registering for a CCJ? Do I have to pay a fee, fill in more forms etc?

Many thanks....

My thoughts as well. Management charge for a block of flats is unrelated to the rental income of those flats.

Given the context and in the absence of other info I presume the flats are leasehold and you own a share of freehold??

Property Management fees

by Santa Fe

Hello. I'm an overseas landlord and own one of four flats in a building, which I rent out; until recently one of the other owner occupiers looked after the management of the building, however he has now sold up and moved out. The new owner does not want to take on the responsibility of managing the...

by jpkeates

I think you might be confusing two different kinds of property manager.

People managing rental property for landlords charge the kinds of rates you mention, but they aren't the kind of property manager for a building full of leased flats.
I'm sure some companies do both, but the fee...
