He said: “When I took on this role, I did so as a renter who knew first-hand what it feels like to live with insecurity and uncertainty'. So clearly made enough from pumping the anti LL agenda = making it...

The only way to build as many NEW social homes as possible for the budget is to reduce the excessive new build requirements as they stand. There is zero business case/use of taxpayer money to provide accommodation that will again...

The LL checks every 6 months. T lives like a pig. LL says you need to clear up. T says ok. Another check a month later and still the same. LL informs the council. Council responds its down to the...

Why would it even be considered a question to ask if the government needed to assess this? What would be the point? Why would a LL need to give a reference for a tenant that has not given notice yet?...

Reply to the comment left by Reluctant Landlord at 13/06/2025 - 16:01I did this in court. I represented myself at a possession hearing and had the ability to question the tenant (because they had a barrister!). First question - did...

can't treat them like they are in work....because they aren't. If they were - They would be able to pay the months rent in advance every month from their own income (not state provided) and they would be able to...

I agree. A LL selling now is because he/she wants to. Decision already made. For some it is a balanced risk against letting. Money is not the only reason why LL's want to sell a rental. Just wait for the...

a mandate is irrelevant. They keep harping back to the fact they won the last election and the Mancunian Muppet will be no different - he won the by elections because people wanted Liebour to represent them apparently (and not...

Reply to the comment left by Mark W at 08/07/2026 - 20:16...are they only looking to bulk buy as they know at some point the direction simply has to change? Are they filling these newly acquired units with tenants though?...

Reply to the comment left by Ian Narbeth at 09/07/2026 - 11:08so the way round this is for every LL to always increase the rent every year even if it is £20 a month. Tenants will have to get used...

Reply to the comment left by Ian Narbeth at 09/07/2026 - 11:03my immediate reaction is that the RRA does not affect existing tenancies in terms of being 'variations'. A rent increase clause is in the agreement so as a guarantor...
