My tenant complained of mould, but would not let me or my workers into the property. He then said he had decorated (he hadn't) and no more mention of mould.
He was clearly causing this by various things he was doing including a tumble dryer with no outlet and a paraffin heater. I served an eviction notice after the police had issued him with an anti-social behaviour warning and notice. He told my other tenants he was going to pay me back!
Then I received a letter of claim from
We have rented a property to 2 friends of ours who were in dire straits. They partially renovated a house we own, and moved in before it was finished. There are electrics. Doors and a bannister which needs finishing.
They have 3 children but asked to move in early. We did not take a deposit as they are friends of ours.
Just before Christmas, they were involved in a domestic incident at the house. The police were involved, and the male got bailed to our own home address. The fem

Breathing Space:
After a number of years letting out my house, I have just had to supply a landlord reference for the tenant for her new property. The company advert states “delivers high-quality services to letting agents helping them win clients, protect their landlords...
I have a very young couple who are entering their first winter in one of my flats. They have just told me they are getting mould in some areas within the flat.
They are pretty naive and are not taking reasonable steps themselves to stop the root problem of condensation (backed up my the electrician who said they were drying wet towels on rads etc and not using the storage heaters in any of the rooms preferring fan heaters instead)....
A solicitor sold my property to a fraudster. Fraudster produced fake utility bill and a driving licence in my name (fake utility bills and driving licences can be bought for £5.00 on the internet). The law society’s recommends that as long as the documents are from an independent source they are acceptable to the solicitor whether they are genuine or not....
