Agency trying to enforce 2 months notice & trying to make me pay another months rent

[Emmzi22]

Hi,

I have a question for a situation that I find myself in.

I’ve just moved out of a rented room in a house share. I gave my notice on the 29th of January 2021 and moved out by the 26th of March 2021. My rent is paid on the 26th of each month.

The contract states...

I have been renting a room in a shared house for 2 years under one letting agent, we were given 3 days notice of a change in letting agent. This letting agency never contacted us, we then lost WiFi. Which is part of our rental agreement. We have been without WiFi for 2 weeks. After over a week they...

Hello,I found out last night that one of our tenants has moved her boyfriend in. It is a 4 bedroom shared house and no couples are allowed which is always stated when advertising a room. Only her name is on the AST and there is a clause about overnight guests in her contract.
Where do I stand...

Hello everyone,
I hope you can perhaps advise. After 4 years my tenant has moved out. He has taken with him an expensive, quality brand hoover with a retail value of £300. Having moved out he now claims this 'broke' or within a month of his arrival 4 years ago, so he threw it out and bought a...

Hi, just need some advice here.

So my tenancy agreement will expire soon and the agent emailed to ask whether I wanted to renew the contract for a further 12 months. I proposed a lower rent, LL countered and I accepted in writing via email to the agent. No mention of subject to contract...

Good morning,

I want to obtain a surrender of my tenancy agreement (Assured Shorthold Tenancy). It is an individual contract between a private agency and me; It is a 12 months contract (6 months to end). There are two other tenants in the flat, one in each room.

The accommodation...

Hi everyone, long story short I'm on an AST in England that ends on 03/12 this year and due to some changed circumstances I wish to not continue my tenancy past that date. Initially I planned on giving a 1 month notice period however my contract specifies that I must give a two month notice period before...

Hi all

new landlord here so apologies for the question or laughable mistake I’ve made.

I have recently signed a tenancy agreement and stupidly run a credit check after. The Tennant has precious CCjs and a high risk score.

Is there anyway I can get out of the...

Hi, is there any way I could void my Assured Shorthold tenancy with a private accommodation if I have:

- not moved in
- not paid a deposit
- not paid any part of the rent yet
- signed the tenancy online

They are constantly ignoring my request to access the...

Hello,

I moved out of a student flat on the 09/06/2020 (the tenancy was ending on the 16/06/2020 but I decided to move out a week early due to the whole COVID situation, and the landlord agreed for me to do so). On the final day, the landlord came to check the condition of the property...

[youngnotgullible]

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post. Desperate for any input on the situation I'm in.

I ended my tenancy early. On the 1st of April I sent my landlord a text message stating that I'd 'transfer [April's] rent' to him, and that it would be my last month spent in the room. I initially...

My letting agent informed me yesterday (Monday) after 5pm via email that the landlord was planning to expand the house (two story expansion on the side of the house) since 2018 and finally the plans have been finalised so the workers are planning on coming on Wednesday to start working on the foundation....

TL;DR - 6 month FTC ended and I'm now unsure of the current 'contract' or notice period to leave. Landlord says that 'by implication' we signed up for an additional 6 months FTC with a 2 month notice period. When I asked for clarification about this, I was told to get independent legal advice.
