Hello, I really don’t want to charge my student renters during this time as their university is closed for the next term and they are not occupying the property for the rest of the contract.

I'm looking for some advice regarding our student let.

We were coming to the end of the tenancy and planned on moving out 10 days before the tenancy was due to end.

I'm one of 6 students letting a house on a joint and several tenancy. Basically I need to get out of there before the next term starts, as the behaviour of some of the other flat last semester was just ridiculous, and more recently they've been hostile to me as a group causing great stress. The dodgy...

We've had issues getting our deposits back from our former landlord due to his estate agent forgetting to do any check out inspections and then fabricating a list of damages 3 weeks later which we have since proven to be false.

I recently got my (partial) deposit back whilst the dispute...

TL;DR
Landlord is currently asking for £900 to put the flat back into its original state, and we feel this is totally unjustified. We have sent a few emails back and forth but...

Hi all,

This is my first post here, I did a search but couldn't find anything similar, so if I've missed anything and someone could point me in the right direction that'd be swell!
