Reply to Existing tenant wants a dog

by Stew

If it were a newly refurb'd place and this was a new tenant I may pick someone else rather than them,, given you know the tenant and have had no problems and the place might need a tidy up anyway and they are a known quantity I would just accept it

Existing tenant wants a dog

by Ericthelobster

If I agree, what conditions/terms can I...

Reply to Existing tenant wants a dog

by Logical.Lean

Reply to Applying for a Rent Repayment Order - is this unlawful eviction?

by morton569

I don't have a lot of experiences, but yes I would consider that as an unlawful eviction. Especially given that you have signed the AST and paid for the rent in advance. Not only should you get your rent back for the period that you are not allowed to stay in, but also push for compensations like the...
