I am sure a well educated woman like this must know the real reasons for rising homelessness, but refuses to acknowledge it. How many more non- consequential ministerial posts will be handed out to lap dogs.How about "Minster for silly...

Reply to the comment left by Mick Roberts at 12/09/2026 - 08:11A very good letter to send to tenants and don't forget MTD software costs, time spent or accountants fees, previously not required and as you say much more.However unless...

It will be, no doubt as this government is desperate for cash.Leading US economist quoted as saying he has never heard of an economy being taxed in to prosperity.

Reply to the comment left by Sheralyne Stamp at 11/09/2026 - 12:58I assume though most if not all letting agents will now check for CCJ following Section 8 which will identify bad tenants who have been evicted.

Not at all surprising letting agents will want higher fees for greater checks on tenants.Mine hasn't, yet, but if I start questioning every detail we now seem to require , they may increase or show me the door. You have...

Clearly there will now be a massive backlog and delays for what should be a simple fast solution. Am I missing something.Why can't the Tribunal ask letting agents for a valuation of the property with examples of recent rents on...

To my generation one pound is a lot of money and £65 per property per annum is a fortune and scandalous on top of what landlords are already paying to run properties with a runaway cost of living crisis, uncontrolled...

It amounts to fraud then and should be dealt with appropriately. If the leaseholders can't afford a solicitor they should approach Trading Standards if they become RTM or even before.

Reply to the comment left by David Lawrenson at 10/09/2026 - 11:20CPI and RPI are meaningless .As we know mortgage interest will increase along with contractor's prices well above these indexes so it will force landlord's out. Only those will...

Yes has now become apparent freehold properties have not only increased in value more than leasehold which in my experience have fallen in value but are also easier to sell. Keep harassing your MP regarding Firstport's performance and excessive charging...

Reply to the comment left by David Lawrenson at 09/09/2026 - 15:26I do think rent controls will come in based on the CPI so landlords will not be allowed to increase rents by more even for new tenants.Removing mortgage interest...

Reply to the comment left by Peter Merrick at 23:40 My feeling also but being broadcast as part of a rent cap deal. national landlord database rollout December at £65 per property per annum.Yet another rip out.Why per property.

Reply to the comment left by Jo Westlake at 08/09/2026 - 11:32What's a spreadsheet? I am 90 years old and am not going back to school or employing an accountant or wasting what is left of my life kow-towing to...

Totally agree with all the comments above. This government has wrecked small businesses with NI and minimum wages.Now it wants landlords whose intention was just a simple investment with a few properties to struggle with MTD and force many to...

Reply to the comment left by Judith Wordsworth at 28/08/2026 - 10:40Great advise, as always.Problem is some tenants will just install and with this anti landlord government/council wanting to fine everybody for the slightest honest mistake I fear this is...

Like the the unauthorised satellite dishes that tenants install, that have to removed at the landlord's expense.Enough of this nonsense. How much do these things weigh?

It's the hypocrisy of all these politicians,over the pond and here, who claim to be making it fairer for the poor, to boost their careers, everyone to be equal regardless of the effort they put in, while robbing those with...

Property values will obviously increase and more importantly be mortgageable and therefore saleable. The issue now will be service charges and as you know flat prices have hardly risen at all in decades and are in free fall as few...
