Editable copy of the Model Tenancy Agreement - anyone?

MrsMac

Hi all,

I'm just about to set up my first new tenancy since the Model Agreement came into force in Scotland. All I can find is a PDF version. Is there an editable version to be had anywhere to save me having to fill in the blanks by hand, or worse still type it all up at a later date?...

Just done one which ran to 61 pages but there are huge sections missing! Please check carefully as it auto-renumbers so this is not obvious. I have tried the process several times on 2 different machines / browsers so it looks like the problem is at their end....

Hi,

Can anybody tell me if there is a legal requirement to advise your local authority if you stop being a landlord and if so what format this must take? I stopped being a landlord over a year ago and let my registration lapse - I have now re-applied to be a landlord and the council want...

Can't see anything in their terms requiring deregistration and in any case surely the late fee would be applicable when the registration expired - not when I reapply to be a landlord months later?

Warning to anyone using the mygov link - large sections of the document appear to be missing, including fairly important bits such as amount of rent due, deposit, move in date!

If that is in the terms of their licence, and, overall, they don't make a profit.

Whilst it seems an odd arrangement, I don't think you will find any statute law that says anything, one way, or the other.

So are you saying that the council can charge a late fee whenever they decide it's appropriate or only if registration occurs after a property has been let out?...

I'd be pretty sure that the law just gives the council power to issue an require licenses, and the rest is administrative detail.
