Dear Mark (and all Property118 readers) I think my wife might be having an affair with one of my tenants. The usual give away signs are all there, lots of “girlie nights out”, which she never used to do, and phone calls where the other person just hangs up when I answer the phone, mainly… Read more

The importance of my question is that, depending on the answer, it may be a way for landlords to bypass requirements for HMO licensing, selective licensing and the problems associated with article 4 restrictions.

My former home has been rented out for the last three years to a great set of tenants who would like to stay there long term.

Hi Mark I have a question for you and your readers regarding traditional estate agents vs fixed fee online estate agents if you think it’s worthy of publishing. I’ve never tried these fixed fee agencies that keep springing up, I tend just to stick with traditional agents.

I have a property related question regarding Local Authority Homeless policy. My local authority advises tenants to ignore section 21 notices and to stay in the property until a court order / bailiffs arrive.
