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.

Don't believe me, look it up (free, 24/7)

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.
I'd like to contact the landlord/owner of the property next door to let him know and get his roofers back but I don't have his contact details.
He's British but lives abroad. The phone number...

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...

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....

You say he increased rent by 25% and that was within his rights. He only has the right to propose an increase (you have the right to propose a lower increase or indeed a decrease). You had the right to appeal the increase: Did you?

Did he serve you with S48 and s3 notices? S48 needs an...
