Oh, landlords not liking taking the blame for the housing price crisis? What’s next? Bankers not liking the blame for the financial crash in 2008? Shocker!

Ah well, I did try to teach you something… some people know the bleedin’ obvious, others do not!

Gromit, if you don’t know the bleedin’ obvious, let me assist (if possible?) Imagine, do keep up Gromit, a world with a blanket ban on every landlord in the world. Do you think property prices go up or down? Answers...

Many people don’t require a survey to know the bleedin’ obvious.

For Wallace and Badger: 10 houses are for sale, with 10 buyers. 1 buyer is a landlord and buys 9 houses with cash for renting out. Only 1 house is now left for the other 9 buyers requiring a roof...

Gromit says, “Perhaps you could provide the source for your assertion to the contrary?” Common sense. Google supply and demand.

Well, simple maths regarding supply and demand isn’t for everyone. Clearly.

Badger believes, “Landlords are not responsible for house price inflation.” Individual landlords owning multiple properties, sometimes hundreds of houses, are not creating a housing shortage? Really?!!!

On the flip side, the country is screwed and so it’s too late for FTBers. The government have so much debt now so the BOE can’t afford to raise interest rates necessary to sink property prices to their correct values...

When a home worth £30k, costing under £1k to build is now valued at £250k+ the system is broken, so the BOE, the governments and mortgage companies have caused a financial headache for the world, not just the UK.

6% interest rates minimum, that is.

The BOE have created this monster. As landlords we will get no sympathy building a business from people’s homes. We cannot have our cake and eat it. Enjoy your holiday Mick. We have caused house prices to be ridiculously too...

My take on Bernie’s meaning is you need 5 or more separate leaseholders to qualify to freehold the block.

What do you think being a landlord means, sitting down and counting your money? It’s your business, now do your work.

Reply to the comment left by paul kaye at 15/01/2022 - 15:38 To the OP, Ashley, you are charging your tenant a premium rent, at over £1000 per month, so imho the least you can do is pay for the...

Relying on only 1 company in an emergency, is exactly the same logic as relying on 1 specific ambulance in particular when you become ill and require an ambulance. No single company can always be available at all times, I...

Clint, but the tenant fixed the problem speedily, blowing your logic clean out of the water. Only relying on 1 company is a nonsense in an emergency.

Stephen, it would be reasonable for the electrician to charge £40 call out, then £30 per hour plus parts. You would need to ask how long the job took. Jumping to the conclusion that you were robbed isn’t fair and...

This is why landlords should not have one company to rely on. Landlord insurance and service cover is worthless in an emergency. Far better is to not have any unreliable cover, that relies on 1 company. Better to do what...

Going back to the original question asked by Peter, vested interests or not. My own experience as an electrician tells me that Paul The Landlord nailed your answer correctly. Paul isn’t at all bothered about working for another landlord, so...
