Who is right: tenant or estate agent/Landlord?

[scoffdew]

Hello,

I gave my estate agent my notice to end my tenancy on the 1st June. My agreement states I need to give two full months notice, and I'll honour this. My agreement also states that when a tenancy is periodic (as mine now is) the notice will end on the day before a Rent Due Date, meaning...

We’re looking to extend our lease for another year + 3 months. My landlord verbally said no problem when I last spoke to him in person. I just want to understand a bit more about my expectations of what will come up when we start discussing. Our current tenancy agreement is £2150 pcm including all...

i recently bought a property through auction that has a rental unit.

The person renting the commercial unit is claiming to have a 25 year lease where he pays £25 pcm. This is ridiculously low as the market rent is around £550.

Hi all,

I have a question, I was pretty sure all tenancy agreements are between the landlord and the tenant, i been told that the agreement can also be setup in a way that the agreement is between the agent and the tenant?

I thought it was always between the landlord and the...

Tenant moves in on the first day of AST contract signed by both parties, you then immediately discover on this day you stuck with a Tenant from Hell(totally unreasonable behaviour within hours of taking residence), and you are legally bound to the agreement for the tenancy term.?

Hi,

I have notified my tenant that I would like them to vacate the property via the section 21 as I would like to sell it, my landlords licence runs out at the end of September but due to having to give six months notice (because of covid) my licence could run out two months before they...

I leased my property to Lewisham council on a 3 year lease around 5 years ago. The lease term has since ended and although the term of the lease agreement states that 2 months notice is to be issued. They refused to leave after the 2 months and this was extended to 6 months due to the pandemic.
