Reply to the comment left by Mark Alexander - Founder of Property118 at 12/10/2026 - 21:17Thank you, Mark. I think you are right, MPs need to hear about this but I'm not sure how this would work. I, for example,...
Thank you for conducting this survey. The insights are important! Are you planning to approach policy makers or maybe join forces with advocacy groups to present these findings to Westminster? I am aware that this is a very small sample...
Hi Mark, I am looking into this as a tenant at the moment. The links to the page: https://www.property118.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=92696&action=edit don't work. It looks like the link to buy the document works and I'm happy to pay once my landlord agrees...

Thanks for alerting us. From their questions it looks like they are aware that 'we' don't like them. The only places to air our opinions was in the 'Other' option of each question. So I did it there. Happy to...
1. 0% 2. 0 3. 20% 4. 1 I don't know my tenants and their circumstances personally so it's hard for me to estimate. One of my properties is let to a housing charity. The other one has a history...

I just wrote back giving her the benefit of the doubt :-) I will not be going to see her as it's too far and, quite frankly, she's probably a waste of time...
So I sent this letter (email) to the MP in Redditch County (where one of my properties is): I am writing to you as one of your constituents. I am writing with regard to the latest attack on landlords in...
I had a similar situation. The deposit was protected with insurance by the agent, who subsequently, put his hand into that pocket and helped himself to £500,000 of tenant deposit money. My situation was that the tenants wanted to leave...

Reply to the comment left by "Ros ." at "09/09/2015 - 21:18": Well, I've used your response, Ros, to respond to the honourable MP as follows: Dear Mr Jackson, Thank you very much for your response. I wish to point...
So, here's the reply I got from the MP. Conveniently avoiding most of the points I made. Do I continue to correspond with him or do I leave it at that? Dear Ms Marinov, Thank you very much for your...

Reply to the comment left by "James Fraser" at "03/09/2015 - 22:06": Ah. B&B :-) Well, she has outdone herself by coming back with: "No we don't. " I then took the opportunity to respond with: "I see. Well, in...
Reply to the comment left by "Ros ." at "03/09/2015 - 21:23": I've already responded to her. I'll see if she comes back to me. In the meantime - what's 'B and B bill'?
