Reply to the comment left by No hate plz at 09/09/2026 - 12:26In addition to the £5.50 dirert cost, there is the indirect cost of LL/MA time to register etc that needs squaring off.
Responding to the government’s announcement that HM Revenue and Customs’ Valuation Office will be responsible for decisions on challenges to rent increases in England, I strongly suspect there is a major hidden agenda here.

Not sure how it posted. Issues of a mobilephone. Anyway. 2. The LL and rental property database means the former LL can easily be contacted for a reference.Provided we all 'play the game' that's a 'game changer'.
There is now a growing tenant database. 1. The only legal repossession route other than voluntary termination is s8. That is on record and can be found during the due diligence process
So. As the freeholder (and separately leaseholders) of a block which is self managed I assume we fall under this as the two companies are legally separate entities. Anyone know?
The mere fact that ALL LLs and properties need to be registered means a potential LL can easily contact the one the potential T says they were renting from. Basically a database in all but name
