Reply to the comment left by Ian Cognito at 24/06/2026 - 17:08Not sure why you think charging landlords double the new tax relative to owner occupiers is OK?
I wonder why the far left can't grasp the simple answer to the question where do landlords get their money from? For any far left readers out there the answer is by charging rent for their assets - so you...
The RRA alone would probably be OK but it is just part of a continuous attack during the last 15 years, and attack that seems likely to go further and deeper with more taxation and more tenant focussed legislation on...
I am not going to take benefit tenants, I am not taking tenants with children or pets or people of ethnicity or anyone with a right to stay. .......in fact I won't be taking on any new tenants of any...
The locals demanded that the homes became more affordable - they have, but the locals who wanted to live there are now redundant as the wealthier second home owners and the holiday visitors have been pushed away and employment plummeted.
The key here is work, it is really daft to say go to Exeter if the only jobs are in London. As I have said many times, the shortage is of well paid stable employment not houses.
There is of course no way of proving that you did not receive a request, the requirement should be to have received the landlords reply. Deemed consent seems entirely unreasonable and high risk.
So if sales are down around 35% why has the completion time increased, I suspect conveyancing staff dragging their heels so they do not run out of work.
The issue here is that 'hazards' identified by previous council inspections have included tenants clothes drying rack in front of the back door and a tenants bicycle in a hallway - with pressure to make money I fear common sense...
It really shows how little value the How To Rent guide actually had, yet we can still feel the impact if we failed to give it to tenants when we come to evict them - even if new tenants are...
These apparent jumps are more to do with small players quitting the market, so even if nobody else had an increase the average will increase because of this.
The big boys have already done this by rebranding HMOs as co-living spaces. I am sure the creative minds here could come up with something similar. Personally I am working on becoming an 'ex-landlord' a term that will be loved...

It would be interesting to see if these awards are ever paid, most close the company and re open under a new brand.

Hmm a 12month project doesn't sound very permanent, I guess these are all licences rather than permanent homes.

The delays are appalling, I really feel for those unable to sell their homes or who may still be facing huge (and increasing) bills

I really can't believe that they were unintended there were plenty of us warning what would happen, more like deliberately ignored consequences.

Of course if we continue to import more people that figure looks wildly optimistic.
