If the cost of providing a home goes up it follows that the rent will increase. We are not Charities. Neither can any losses be set off against any other type of income, so if we cannot cover our costs...
From what i have read, you can enter a valid UK address where legal notices etc can be served (such as agents) it doesn't have to be private home address. Hopefully that is true!

Rhun needs to look at Rent Smart Wales data - in month of May 2026 alone overall there were 290* less Landlords and 532 less properties available for rent. (*Net figures of new landlords and those no longer landlords) I...
Suggest you refer to the lease itself. I believe Leaseholder can only request first months rent in these circumstances if it is clearly stated in lease. Same applies to other charges you mention, although think those are pretty standard.
The one pictured looks like it would "go missing" too easily. Or get damaged easily. Hope there is some way of fitting them more securely? We once had a very heavy manhole cover in an enclosed courtyard which very mysteriously...
532 less rental properties in one month... if that trend continued it would be 6000 per year, potentially housing 10 to 15 thousand people. Landlords in Wales at present still have 'no fault' eviction option using 173, albeit with 6...
Reply to the comment left by yl2006 at 13:30 Did you apply to court (form N325) and pay £130 to appoint the Bailiffs? Did you get notification that Bailiff was coming on that date? Did you confirm it with them?...
I expect only time will tell if justice system is ready. In theory the courts should be busier as all eviction cases(where tenant doesn't vacate by notice date) will require a court hearing. But its impossible to say for sure...
Reply to the comment left by Freda Blogs at 08/07/2026 - 12:16Probably have a sliding scale for different 'offences'. Starting at £5k for not fixing a dripping tap for 2 days, £10k for no hot water for 3 days, £15k...
Yet another government scheme to encourage landlords to leave the PRS! The "ambulance chasers" will be rubbing their hands, advertising their no win no fee services to tenants.
They will probably introduce a Local Community Charge payable to local council for emptying bins, libraries, local expenditure etc etc. On top of Land Tax....And it will all end up costing us all more one way or another!
Reply to the comment left by Judith Wordsworth at 10:41 That would have been marvellous. Just imagine every tenant turning up at Council clutching their S21! I would have joined in but our properties are in Wales so would not...
Hopefully, all landlords who let in Wales will have issued notice of the variation by due date. All landlords in Wales are required to be registered with Rent Smart Wales, and fair play they have sent at least 3 e...

Wonder IF landlord supplied the panel and tenant benefitted from the electric, would that be taken into consideration for EPC ? Just a thought.....it maybe enough to just reach the C rating especially on older buildings.
