Lovely idea. Just so you don't assume... Building Regs for your new build is domestic. Quite right. There are brand new Fire Safety requirements started 1st Jan 2024 for all short term lets. Basically the commercial fire safety regulations do...

So you are worried about those large section 20 leasehold maintenance bills that cost hundreds or thousands? I understand. Im a freeholder. So I can explain. When the roof needs doing or new laws come into force eg fire safety...

Agree with Graham above. It must be explicitly prohibited in your lease. EG The lack of any mention of rental restrictions in your lease, would mean you are allowed.

we have exactly the same after trying to deal informally, we threatened ombudsman and legal action as we have never entered into a contract with the company and clear evidence was electronically sent that proves the supplier knows the tenant...

Same. Council tried to intervene in ours too. The council did everything to prolong /keep tenant in property, cost us landlords extra time, hours of work and extra costs. The council are not trying to help YOU out. Thats for...

Ive had this, this year. The items do belong to tenant until legally recognised as "abandoned" We used the Torte Act. Served tenant with "Abandonment Notice" stating if not collected in 21 days, the items will be cleared/sold at tenants...
