Reply to the comment left by Judith Wordsworth at 30/04/2025 - 11:25And Deed of Variation can take months to go through and anyway the head leaseholder will not agree to it. It's a good idea for me to get on...

Reply to the comment left by John Taylor at 30/04/2025 - 10:46I don't think I can buy a lease extension as the lease still has 120 years to run

Having given our tenant both section 21 & 8 she was advised by Birmingham City Council to stay until bailiffs evict her so she stopped paying rent - that was a year ago - we are still waiting for the...

The courts are painfully slow and everything takes so long. The form N325 for Warrant of Possession is taking up to twenty weeks to action. God knows what it's going to be like once Section 21 has been abolished.

Reply to the comment left by Reluctant Landlord at 15/08/2024 - 13:33I appreciate your reply but unfortunately 'good' tenants often don't stay like that. Some years ago I had three lovely young ladies all with good jobs and references, etc...
