I believe that windows are good for light too.

Landlord working hours have never been 9 to 5!

Reply to the comment left by Sheralyne Stamp at 17/09/2026 - 13:38You might want to get a legal opinion to be certain of your position. They would tell you if you have any culpabillity if, for example you fail to...

Reply to the comment left by Sheralyne Stamp at 17/09/2026 - 13:08I guess if you're only passing on information to the landlord, it would be difficult to prove a case of discrimination against you. If instead you're shortlisting, it may...

Nevertheless, a Tribunal requirement for achieved rent figures disadvantages independent landlords as against agents who have more extensive data on this readily to hand. Given that the FTT are supposed to have extensive data of their own, this seems a...

Nothing to stop you refusing viewings to anyone who can’t afford the rent. That’s a calculation that needs to be done carefully though, including the applicants potential benefits income, which may take some time to gather. I think it’s not...

You say "allowed her to use the property", but I assume you charged her rent or something equivalent, otherwise she doesn't have a tenancy.

Rent to rent was always a bad idea in my view, but now it's a disaster for landlords. Your tenant, the company, can't evict their tenant for anything but rent arrears or ASB and the Act makes you, the superior...

Reply to the comment left by Colin Dartnell at 11/09/2026 - 21:56CGT is only likely to get even more expensive, and prices are dropping too. If you are thinking of getting out, now is probably the best time.

Reply to the comment left by Ian Narbeth at 09/09/2026 - 12:59Yes, that's my biggest fear too. As anyone that uses landlord software knows, it's very data hungry and requires constant feeding.

Most of them from Generation Rent I expect. Now we know why they're campaigning so hard to get the current landlords out.

If this is all that N E Lincs Council have said on the matter, then its unhelpful in more ways than one. It suggests that being late to apply for a required selective licence is a bit of a nuisance...

Unfortunately most agents I've met know little more about the law than the average landlord. Also under the RRA, landlords are not immune to fines, penalties and RROs of they use an agent.

In the past most risks could be costed and to some extent mitigated by high rents. However, the RRA introduced a raft of civil penalties for trivial mistakes. In some cases little more than admin errors. A £40,000 civil penalty...

Reply to the comment left by Cathie at 20:20 I don't think it needs to list the tenants names, just the dates the landlord has evicted and ideally the s8 ground they used. Landlords then just ask applicants for details...

Its hardly surprising that the requirement for guarantors has doubled given the risks landlords are now being asked to carry. However, enjoy it while you can. When they launched the Renters Rights Act, the Government said they would continue to...

Surely in Paul's case 16M(4)(a) applies as he would have served notice. His lockout period would therefore be 12 months from the date of expiry of the notice.

Scotland's rental prices are hardly a sensible comparison to Manhattan! Zone 1 London is very similar to Central NYC and I assume that there are plenty of areas outside major US cities that are proportionate to non metropolitan areas of...

Their proposals on offsetting a higher rate of CGT would only cover rental properties, so they seem to be happy to throw second home owners under the bus.
