Jakub, Please feel free to submit any evidence you like. You might also be clear about what offences I have committed with regard to PRS licensing in Southwark. Please be exact. For everyone else I have left Southwark, entirely by...

Hi Dianne, I think you need to do two things. Firstly get some advice from a solicitor who is genuinely expert in leasehold matters, the average high street hack doesn't have the required experience. I'd also suggest you advise the...

Hi Paul, Your contractual relationship with the tenant is over so you are under no obligation to do anything for the ex tenant. However the tenant may have some reasonable justification for the request, in which case it is good...

Hi Mark, I have to say that if you were to spend a couple of hours combing through the DCLG announcements on the PRS released in the last couple of weeks you won't be any happier. I have posted a...

Not all downside though, DCLG announced today 440 thousand free smoke alarms and 40 thousand free CO detentors available to landlords through the local fire service. I'd assume that these are the battery type.

Hi Mike, The EPC has a validity of 10 years and you must have one and make it available to prospective tenants or purchasers before marketing your property. If you substantially change the property, it's heating or insulation the old...

OK then I refer you to the maps in our licensing proposal which indicate the incidence of ASB. I'm sorry but the idea that the property market in Southwark would be blighted or even affected by licensing is ludicrous. All...

Reply to the comment left by "Michael Bond" at "16/03/2015 - 17:39": Hi Michael, I don't think that there is a social landlord that does not fit smoke alarms, failure to provide them would provoke regulatory action. CO alarms are...

Hi Mark, The old tests for selective licensing were lack of demand and ASB linked to high density of PRS occupation. So in applying that to the real world I think that each LA area is different. In rural or...

Reply to the comment left by "Neil Patterson" at "12/03/2015 - 12:37": Hi Neil, Have to agree that the letter is a game changer for new selective licensing proposals. It is interesting that the minister proposes to make selective licensing...

Hi, A reminder to readers that our consultation closes on the 14th and we are keen to record all views on our proposals.

Michael, Before statute became markedly involved in the regulation of property transaction in the 20th century the whole lot was governed by common law and case law. Therefore agricultural tenancies tended to be quarterly with rents payable on quarter days,...

Mr Brunstrop, Whilst the comparison to an Albanian dictator was obscure, I'm sure everyone had to google it like me, inaccurate and in the end somewhat amusing it hardly takes the debate forward. Because I disagree with you and am...

Hi Mark, Please can you explain on what grounds or under what law you would take on Newham's licensing scheme ? Mr Regas' call for resignations is not really very realistic, it's not very likely that a Councillor would take...

Reply to the comment left by "Philipp Brunstrop" at "11/12/2014 - 16:32": The initial reports on the judgement against Enfield seems to have two elements. It was found that their consultation did not last for the time suggested in the...

Reply to the comment left by "David Lawrenson" at "22/11/2014 - 10:02": Hi Mark, All your points are sensible but we are left with the law as it stands. We could all sit down and make a sensible series of...

Reply to the comment left by "Philipp Brunstrop" at "20/11/2014 - 18:56": Hi Phillip, The EHCS data shows that 43% of tenants are very satisfied and 41% are fairly satisfied. The sample is under 3900 tenancies and is not regionalised....
