I'm sure that everyone is facing their fair share of challenges at the moment, but i was hoping to get some advice form this forum with regards to a tenant that has absconded.

To caveat, i'm an accidental landlord so letting is not an industry i have gone into with a view to making extra...

I have a tenant who is renting a property and he and his room mate have requested a rent reduction as they cannot work during this period due to Corona virus. The tenants are from the EU and have been renting for around a year, I am unsure if they receive 80% of their salary as part of the UK government...

Hey everyone, I recently moved to Bristol
took on a flatshare, asked to move within a week due to things being stolen, feeling unsafe in the flat and it just not being to the standard I expected.
When I asked to leave the landlord said it's okay and I'll get my deposit back, he has now changed...

A friend and I currently rent rooms in shared accommodation, one of our housemates has become difficult to live with, but I am pretty sure our housing situations falls short of legality and I wonder what my rights are if any in this situation.

Hello all,
I let out a HMO to a guy on AST for 6 months who then sublet it to other tenants. Neither of us lived at the property. After the 6 months, he didn’t renew the contract for another fixed term so the letting agent moved him onto a monthly rolling contract. This carried on for a few...

Hi

My tenants have left the property they were in for 5 years. There is considerable damage to walls, floors etc. and piles of rubbish. They are also have rent arrears for £1500.

There is a guarantor in place so I am reasonably confident that I will get my costs and the rent...

In one of my properties, I served a S21 to my tenant... First time I've ever done so.

I've now realised the S21 I served is invalid because I failed to provide a gas safety certificate (not something the tenant or I realised)

Also the tenant agreed that she...

Hi to everyone.
I have a huge problem with one of my tenants.
So he moved in into 4 Bed HMO, 4 months ago, he is on Standard AST.

After approx 16 months of a good tenancy the tenant gave 1 month notice to leave. As the date given was 10 days after the next months rent was due I offered to take the 10 days of rent off their deposit but only if they authorize this. They did and I have an e-mail from them agreeing this. Now they...

Hello there, my tenant is 3 months in rent arrears and as long as they don't pay we will have a court hearing in a month with mandatory grounds to hopefully gain a possession order.

When they started the tenancy in 2016 I protected the deposit and sent the tenant the prescribed information...
