Reply to the comment left by Julian Lloyd at 07/08/2025 - 12:37Hi Julian, I think this labour government is so corrupt , surely they should be taken to task following this revelation. How did you manage to get the info...

Surely, under the circumstances you describe, rubbish is rubbish and not actually 'possessions' in the accepted meaning of the word.. I would have been inclined to leave it out - bit by bit - for the binman. And, perhaps leave...

Surely the number one reason for so many homeless is the uncontrolled number of immigrants entering this country. Labours plan for building a million plus homes, during the present government, might just house those immigrants that enter our country during...

Well said. I am reminded of the old saying "there are none so death as those who don't want to hear" (or something like that). Also have to say it was good to learn of the Reform wins.

Reply to the comment left by Paul landlord at 14/02/2024 - 12:37Completely agree with you Paul. I had two houses rented out. Both had ongoing damp/mould problems. I gave tenants some advice on how to deal with this 'lifestyle' issue....

The court system in this country is a Joke. I eventually managed to evict a tenant. The house was a mess. Illegal wiring of multiple power points General damage and filth everywhere. I pursued the arears using the 'My Money'...

Having renovated, rebuilt, and restored a number of properties over the years and been a landlord for the past 20 years I'd like to add my comments on the situation Joe finds himself in. Joe, I think you have only...

I agree with the two previous comments. Let the Bailiffs do their job. If the tenant has not been able or unwilling to pay the rent and you have been through the legal process correctly. Accept this, do all the...

What an absolute mess this country, our country ?, is in. I can't see an end to the housing shortage problem. Tens of Millions of pounds being spent every day to provide temporary accommodation. Would this not be better spent...

Be sure the agent is up to the task. Double check what they are doing for you, and never forget that you, the landlord, are ultimately responsible for any and all errors regarding the documentation and compliance etc. etc...

Reply to the comment left by Colin Richard Noakes at 04/09/2023 - 12:38I agree Colin, in fact I thought that once a tenant had been served notice that within so many days (can't remember how many) a Tenant should be...

Reply to the comment left by Nikki Palmer at 12/07/2023 - 08:59Assuming a 6 month AST. The 2 months refers, I understand, to the time of giving notice before end of tenancy.

Reply to the comment left by Mark Smith at 08/07/2023 - 10:55I agree with you Mark. Although we are yet to hear further from the original poster, Helen. Perhaps we do not have the whole story or picture of what’s...
