Not at all, it's all very informative, thank you. I think I might opt out of criterion 3 though, I'm not a pie and chips man myself....

Greetings, I Come in Peace

by AVJ113

Hello all, I am a prospective landlord. I will be arranging my first mortgage in principle today as a start to my evil buy-to-let empire. As a total newb, what would be the one piece of advice you would give after your years of experience as a landlord?

Reply to How to track down landlord

by theartfullodger

S1 LL&t 1985 requires address. S38 defines that as his (his not agent's) place of abode or place of business.

Sadly rarely enforced.

How to track down landlord

by kelbol

Next door property is being rented out and had the roof redone. Mine got damaged in the process.

Reply to Cheapskate landlord wants to end tenancy

by royw

They don't all but it would be worth asking. I would see what else is available for rent. Given his attitude...

Hi just after some advice. I have been renting the property for 4.5 years, 4 of those with a fantastic landlord and 6 months with a new landlord. When he took over he immediately increased the rent by 25%, annoying but perfectly within his rights. The main issue is maintainance and repairs. I cant report...

I thought about that but I don't see the tenants doing that. We'll all get on the wrong side of the LL if we force him to provide an address he didn't want to provide in the first place and he may well use the agent's address....
