Leasing to Serco would be rent to rent and would leave you very exposed. I would sell without hesitation.

Expect more house fires due to old wiring and letters from the Council about, ahem, unauthorised erections.

Their mistakes will become your mistakes as Councils can still go after you for civil penalties and occupying tenants can claim a rent repayment order against you for up to 2 years rent. Unless the mesne tenant is a qualifying...

Slightly worrying that the author of this article thinks that offering compliance support would be a new thing for agents! Surely that's what they should have been providing all along. It does point to a truth about most letting agencies...

Reply to the comment left by Tauhid Islam at 26/08/2026 - 15:17Yes, that looks right to me too. Just so that we're clear, if a landlord serves a ground 1 or 1A notice, (regardless of whether its served in addition...

82% of of their income on rent is not an affordability metric I'd be comfortable with.

Reply to the comment left by Paul Essex at 17:34 No the 12 months min ban still applies if the tenant gives notice. Once you serve a ground 1A or ground 1 notice there's no going back unless you can...

I think that charging more rent for the early periods than the later ones was always banned under the TFA. Something about stopping landlords getting an extra deposit by the back door I seem to remember.

My understanding is it's based on who actually has possession at midnight. If the tenant moves out at 11:30pm, then regardless of the fact that the tenancy runs until midnight, the landlord has de-facto possession and pays for that day.

Reply to the comment left by Paul Essex at 25/08/2026 - 09:38I believe that I this case the re-let period would begin 12 months after your notice expires

The landlord having an allergy is not one of the reasons the Govertment gave for turning down a pet request. My understanding is that you would be expected to appoint an agent to conduct check-in, inspections etc so that you...

Unfortunately, none of the things you mention would be sufficient to reject a tenants request for a pet without breaching the Renters Rights Act.

All the social homes that are being built next to railway stations are a ticking time bomb for Government and the housing associations that own them. There are some near where I live that are right next to the station....

I dont believe the numbers quoted. However, what these tenants have failed to understand is that whilst a landlord may find it difficult to refuse a pet to an existing tenant, there is no such problem rejecting them if the...

Reply to the comment left by Fergus Wilson at 16/08/2026 - 19:50I think your comment is probably out of date. I suspect that in the not too distant future, jobs in the social and caring sectors may be the only...

Reply to the comment left by Fergus Wilson at 14/08/2026 - 10:37To be fair, the media criticism was probably justified in your case. In fact I suspect that many landlords would blame you and others like you for much of...
