Dare it be said that we do not need any more homes? Reform UK rightly seems to think that there are millions of immigrants in England illegally or who just do not need to be here, if we trained up...

A third of the vote should not result in two thirds of the seats. The hypocrisy of the Labour Party is just grotesque. This government of no democratic legitimacy. So a tenant causes black and yellow mould throughout the property...

Agreed Reform has much more to offer. And why support the Tories when they have done so much damage to the sector and made such a mess of running the country..

Reply to the comment left by Martin Thomas at 06/06/2024 - 10:28I couldn't agree more.

Yes. I received a solicitors' letter out of the blue, alleging damp and damage to health. I had owned the property for 15 years without any such issue arising. The fault was with the tenants, not heating and ventilating the...

The problem is the first past the post electoral system for Westminster and English local government, where votes do not count equally and where a majority of MPs can be elected on a minority of votes. It can take as...

Is Angela Rayner more dangerous in her former role as shadow education secretary with no educational qualifications at all OR in her current role as shadow housing minister, knowing virtually nothing about housing and the basic mechanics of supply and...

What are the terms of the Landlord Licence the Council granted to you? Are you in breach or potential breach and, if so, in what respects? What remedy (if any) does the licence offer if you and the Council cannot...

Can an AST be signed retrospectively?

Beware. An unsigned contract might be binding anyway if it can be shown that the key components of offer, acceptance, consideration and intention to create an agreement are in place; and if the contract has been performed by the parties...

Tenant Fees Act barrier to renting with pets
