Landlords have to protect themselves- noone else has got our back. I have had a sizeable portfolio that began it's existence in 1992. I experimented in engaging with council schemes about 15 years ago and stopped within a couple of...

Reply to the comment left by Downsize Government at 02/05/2025 - 09:43And consider the Universal Credit IT systems too. How long did that take?.... Started it in 2013? And it's still an 'un-userfriendly' and flawed today.

Reply to the comment left by Cider Drinker at 02/04/2025 - 18:27It doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Properties in what are without doubt one of the most deprived areas of my town are ineligible apparently. An experiment...

Reply to the comment left by Bill irvine at 28/01/2025 - 11:20So people, excuse me for being a little confused here, but referencing 'Bill Irvines' comment, can we establish whether this is applicable to only the social housing providers and...

Reply to the comment left by Dino Saw at 17/01/2025 - 11:12I am following the same pattern. I have protected my tenants by absorbing a vast amount of the costs imposed on me in the last 10 years who were...

Don't even need to go to the expense and ongoing subscriptions for Hive. Programmable thermostats have offered a low cost solution for programming different temperatures at different times of the day for decades. The problem I have found though is...

Reply to the comment left by Cider Drinker at 04/12/2024 - 17:54Totally ridiculous comment.- "I think there ought to be a limit to rent increases.A limit of BofE Base Rate + 5% would seem reasonable" Sounds like you ought to...

Reply to the comment left by Cider Drinker at 15/11/2024 - 10:38You have no argument from me there and that's something that needs to be addressed. But regardless, I think the point here is that successive government's are making a...
